Tara is without a doubt the best PT therapist I have ever met. She has tactescence (a word I made up) which is the unique ability to touch, diagnose, and cure. She comes with my highest recommendation. If I ever get another weird ache, I'm coming back.

BR Physical Therapy is absolutely the best. Tara Collins is incredibly knowledgeable, easy to work with and provides 1-on-1 direct care. I've been to other PT offices and you don't get the same kind of personal attention as Tara provides. She is excellent!!! I'd like to clone her and bring her and bring her with me when I move to Maine.

I’ve been to BR Physical Therapy many times and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Tara is very experienced and has a wide variety of techniques she uses- no one size fits all. She’s deeply committed to the wellbeing of her clients. She’s very thorough and knowledgeable in assessing what’s wrong and treating you as a whole person - more insight into how all of your body is involved. I wish there were more stars ,
