About Us

 

Since its inception in 2002, AIR Physical Therapy and Fitness has worked diligently to impact lives through compassionate, professional care. We pride ourselves on the positive relationships with patients, referral sources, schools, local businesses, and the community. When your physician refers you to physical therapy, you have a choice where to receive services. By choosing AIR Physical Therapy and Fitness for your physical therapy needs, you put yourself and your personal health goals first.

Our therapists are experts in relieving pain and dedicate themselves to improving your function effectively and efficiently. At AIR, we want you to Get Healthy and Stay Healthy.

AIR Physical Therapy and Fitness has established an unparalleled reputation for providing professional and compassionate care with over 300 referring physicians in the tri-state area. We have been the facility of choice in Ellwood City and the surrounding area for years. AIR Physical Therapy welcomed Frank Sapanaro and Amber Dean in  2021 to the AIR team.  They will continue to treat residents of the New Castle area, where they has been practicing for more than 10 years.  We pride ourselves in that most of our patients are referred by satisfied family or friends who have already received effective treatment from the team at AIR. The choice is yours.
