Nick Rinard Physical Therapy Don't deal with pain, heal it! Nick Rinard Physical Therapy is devoted to healing people in as few a

Nick Rinard Physical Therapy (formerly Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy of Portland (MDT)) in Portland, Oregon, is a small network of Physical Therapy clinics devoted to healing people and giving them the power to heal themselves. Founded in 1999, MDT of Portland was the first Physical Therapy clinic in the Northwest devoted to practicing the MDT Method (including McKenzie Method, Musculo-skeletal Diagnosis and Treatment, Mulligan Mobilization with Movement, and other manual therapy methods). We have two Physical Therapy clinics serving the Portland Metro Area, plus opportunities at Mt. Hood, and remain the only Physical Therapy practice that specializes in the MDT method. For that dedication we have been rewarded with the reputation as the Physical Therapy Clinic That Gets Results. We honor that reputation every day by seeing our patients recover, more than 10,000 and counting, in as few as 4-6 visits. But don't just take our word for it; schedule a Physical Therapy appointment today and see for yourself how you can finally live pain free!
