Words cannot describe how grateful we were to find Nick Ricca. We were in total despair after my daughter’s gymnastic injury to her knee. However, from day one he gave us hope and showed us compassion, respect and professionalism. I have worked with many Physical Therapists and none have given us such drive to recovery as he did. His precision in skilled therapy for her exact diagnosis was impeccably on point. Each and Every session was tailored to her needs and progression to return to her sport. If you are looking for someone who is going to take their time and give you the exact care you need to get stronger and back into the game, than he is the Physical Therapist for you! 10/10 Recommend!!!

"I came to see Dr. Nick Ricca for neck, lower back, and shoulder pain, and the results have been truly amazing! Dr. Ricca listened closely to my goals and designed a plan of care that truly worked. He was very empathetic, knowledgeable, and truly invested on me reaching my goals and feeling better! Thanks to his expertise, I am back to kayaking and handling daily household chores almost pain free. Most importantly, I can comfortably take care of my own patients again. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking for an excellent, very attentive physical therapist!" The front staff was also very very kind and helpful! I’d definitely recommend Strive Physical therapy for any therapy needs!.

My husband has been a patient at the West Marion location for quite some time, recovering from a spinal stroke. He has come so very far from our first visit, from a wheelchair to a walker to canes. Because of their skill and care, he is much closer to walking unassisted and much stronger and able to do more on his own. Nick has done the majority of his care and is so creative in finding exercises that challenge him and help him work on whatever the current issue is. We came in for a visit, early in his treatment, after my husband had fallen and had a very hard time getting up off the floor, and Nick spent the entire session, teaching him different methods to recover from a fall and teaching him how to strengthen the muscles that would help him do that. The entire staff there is helpful and friendly and a pleasure to work with. We feel very blessed that we found Nick and his team.

Strive Physical Therapy is the Best. I really like the fact that PT is one on one! One Therapist to One Patient for the entire 40 minutes. Emilyanna, Rebecca and Nick were all Great to work with! They paid attention to my needs and made sure I was doing my exercises correctly! Thank you all!

I’ve had a fantastic experience at Strive Health and Rehabilitation working through some back and shoulder issues. Nick and his staff are very attentive and have done a fantastic job to help me build strengthen mobility. If you have an issue and need PT, If you’re simply looking to strengthen muscles you forgot you had - I highly recommend Strive!
