The newly opened Brunswick Physical Therapy Cary clinic offers comprehensive outpatient physical therapy services, including orthopedic and post-surgical care, manual therapy, dry needling, and individualized treatment programs rooted in evidence-based practice. The space was designed to provide a welcoming, patient-centered environment focused on restoring movement, improving function, and supporting long-term health.
