Who are we? We are defined in 3 parts:
Why is this first? Because everything we do stems from our reason for existing - to know God and make Him known in the earth. Therefore, we want to do everything well (quality) and with integrity, relying on Christ to establish the work of our hands (Psalm 90:17).
What is better about Strength & Shield? We are not under the control or burden of insurance companies. We give 1-on-1 care to our patients. We manage only about 1/4 of the patients that regular "insurance PT's" attempt to manage. We aim to reduce your dependence on us (less visits) and empower you to steward your
body well.
We desire to be a blessing to all of those in touch with us. We do this through a weekly blog and newsletter to give helpful information on all things healthcare. We also invest in giving our community a wide range of unique and excellent resources through our "resources" page.
