Welcome to Furnace Brook Physical Therapy.

Furnace Brook Physical Therapy has been serving the needs of the South Shore area since 1987. We moved into our newly constructed 7,000 square foot clinic in August, 2011. We are very proud to be the first medical practitioner to own an onsite therapy pool in Quincy; custom designed for an orthopedic and sports medicine population. The clinic is located less than a mile from the Red Line Quincy Center train station as well as on a bus line serving Quincy Center.

As a therapist-owned, outpatient rehabilitation facility, we use evidence-based techniques from the scientific literature to efficiently and effectively achieve a functional outcome for the patient. We stress the importance of empowering the patient to be pro-active, as consistency and reinforcement are often the keys to successful rehabilitation. We work to accomplish these goals within the framework of your health insurance benefit.

We are credentialed by the American Physical Therapy Association and the American Back Society. Our therapists hold doctoral degrees, and are board certified as orthopedic physical therapy specialists. Our staff has also held faculty positions at Boston University, Northeastern University and Simmons College.
