Body In Balance Physical Therapy

Body in balance is the best location for physical therapy in all of southern Maine. Communication is spectacular, and Laura’s knowledge is great too! Lauras experience was able to completely heal my chronic back pain after years of trying different therapists that never helped. Highly recommend checking them out!

Laura at Body In Balance is an exceptional physical therapist with incredible knowledge and skill. It is very clear that she genuinely cares about helping her patients to get stronger and improve their quality of life and this is reflected in the care she provides. I came to her with significant chronic low back pain, sciatica and multiple herniated discs. Within months my pain has improved immensely and most days I’m pain free which I haven’t been in years. She has provided the exercises needed to continue to strengthen my back to prevent recurrent injury. If you have the opportunity to work with Laura, I would highly recommend you do!

Dr. Laura Beauchesne was recommended by a friend and I couldn't be happier with my choice. She is warm, respectful and highly-experienced, with two advanced degrees in Physical Therapy.
Her practice is pleasantly homey, well-equipped and efficiently run. It is easily accessible with adjacent parking and elevator. She sanitizes often and adheres to safety protocols. I have found her to be patient, kind and encouraging in non-judgmental ways.
I have been pleased with the moral support I received as well as the excellent progress I made following total knee replacement surgery. She has also helped me with my lower back pain and hip bursitis. This practice is ideal for anyone wanting personalized and thoughtful guidance in order to learn how to do helpful exercises at home.
I am thankful that both my mobility and mood have improved greatly as a result of time spent at Body in Balance.
Five stars!

I have had the BEST Physical Therapy Experience and recovery from my Total Knee Replacement with Laura at Body in Balance. She is so kind and caring, efficient and knowledgeable about what it took to get me up and moving again! It's only been 6 weeks since surgery (and 4 weeks with Laura) and I feel like I am ready to take on the world!

This review is admittedly a mixed bag. Roxanne & Laura (owner) worked very hard to sort out alot of insurance junk on my behalf. And I am grateful for that. My ins was playing hard ball and giving out wrong info to myself and body in balance. However, and it’s a big however, my first phone call was a warning flag. And I knew it. Laura took my call while she was with another patient. I personally find this unprofessional. I was leaving a voice mail and she picked up the call 1/2 way through. So now I gotta repeat myself. My first thought is “she’s gonna do this to me while I am with her”. So that’s red flag. I arrived for my 2:45 appt at 2:40. I then fill out all necessary paperwork. (I was never told to arrive early to fill out paperwork; especially since they had all my ins info) I do so. It’s now 3:05 and no Laura. She’s still with someone. At 3:15 still no Laura. I walk out. She hunts me down in the parking lot as I am backing out. No apology, no taking responsibility for it. Asks me to come back in she’s ready for me. I advise her I have another appt to get to. My time is valuable to. She offers it again. I again let her know I have another appt. I ask her when her next available appt is. She states “next week”. Ok let’s try again. She then says “well if you don’t think this is going to work for you”…. Hold up… YOU were 30 min late and no apology or even acknowledging of that. I drive away and send her a very kind text and she has now ghosted me. I expect WAY more from someone of her age and professional caliber.

So no, this won’t work for me. I’ve just had MAJOR spinal surgery and this is your manner? You seem to have a thriving business. And I’m told Laura does amazing work. But not owning your errors & ghosting. Come on.
Office/ Roxanne (5 stars for your hard work)
