How my journey began.
Melissa Swope is the sole owner and physical therapist of Restore PT. She graduated from Misericordia University in 2010 with a Masters in Physical Therapy. She has been practicing physical therapy for over 14 years in Lancaster County, focused on outpatient orthopedics and pre/post surgical patients. While having a passion for all things orthopedic, she has learned to love treating and maintaining the health of runners and active fitness enthusiasts. She has been married for 14 years and has two active boys who keep her busy when not practicing PT!
In order to focus on you and achieve the highest quality of care, Restore PT is a private pay practice and does not accept insurance. This allows unrestricted visits, which are not dictated by insurance limitations or requirements. Restore PT is also Direct Access, which means you can come directly to Melissa for PT without a physician referral, for up to 30 days. This allows immediate care and drastically decreases your recovery time. With 1-on-1 60 minute sessions, attention to detail, and your goals at the forefront, you’re guaranteed a successful outcome.
What People Are Saying
“Over the past 3 years, Melissa has been assisting me recover from an accident as well as from associated chronic pain. Unlike other physical therapists I have worked with in the past, Melissa has been very effective in diagnosing my physical ailments and customizing protocols to mitigate my pain and speed my recovery. Recently, I completed a pain-free, 3 day 130 mile bicycling trip. Without Melissa’s help, this would not have been possible. I feel blessed to have met Melissa and will continue to seek her counsel moving forward.”

She is always able to quickly pinpoint the source and work on the issue for immediate relief. The best part is that she’s so accommodating, can always fit me in quickly and I don’t have to go through multiple prior appointments with my PCP before being seen!”
