Our mission is to disrupt all barriers by providing comprehensive, state-of-the-art, evidence-based treatment to individuals with neurological and vestibular disorders in a safe and friendly environment. We help patients reduce their pain, improve their function, and regain independence. We then go a step further and help individuals maintain their health through our maintenance programs. At Asara, we treat the whole patient.
Our vision is to be known as the go-to, state-of-the-art clinic in the Dallas metroplex area for any individual with neurological and vestibular disorders.
Asara Physical Therapy and Balance Clinic differentiate itself with its personable approach.
Patients and their families receive treatment in dedicated private rooms. We do not believe in an open gym and treating 2-3 patients simultaneously, or multiple therapists are seeing a patient. The client’s recovery is our primary focus, and we believe consistency is critical.
We are a private practice with two clinicians, and you will have the same clinician work with you through your complete care with us.
We are highly specialized in what we do and do not compromise on patients’ safety and outcomes.
We also believe in empowering patients through education, providing the tools to succeed at home. We also encourage caregivers and family to be engaged in the care of their loved ones by providing them support and education through workshops, home exercise programs, education handouts, etc.,
