Friendly experts in muscle and joint problems.

We believe in your body’s innate ability to heal. We also believe it sometimes needs some support. Our role is to identify the root cause of your muscle and joint pain and to create a personalized plan aimed at swiftly restoring you to a pain-free life.

Our specialization lies in hands-on therapies and individualized therapeutic exercises. When coupled with comprehensive education, these therapies deliver optimal and rapid results for our patients.

Dr. Roger Karsten commenced his professional journey in 1988 at the University of Amsterdam in the Netherlands. He furthered his expertise in the United States, obtaining certification as a manual therapy specialist and earning a Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of St. Augustine in Florida. 

Roger collaborates with Ms. Lorena Reyes, a seasoned Physical Therapist Assistant and Michigan native, bringing valuable expertise to the team. 

Heather Karsten, Roger’s spouse, rounds out the small team. Serving as the clinic coordinator, she oversees various administrative responsibilities, including billing and scheduling.

Our philosophy is rooted in the understanding that while your body has a remarkable self-healing potential, it sometimes needs a helping hand. This is why we offer free consultations.

By offering free consultations, we aim to help anyone dealing with joint or muscle pain get clarity on their issues and understand how our expertise can contribute to their recovery.

Meet the Team!
