Platinum Physical Therapy: Keeping Norfolk moving, one patient at a time
May 28, 2026 12:30PM ● By Jennifer RussoTucked into the heart of Norfolk, Personal Best Physical Therapy, now known as Platinum Physical Therapy, has quietly built a reputation over the past nine years for something that goes beyond treatment plans and exercises. It’s about helping people get their lives back.
The tone feels different right away. Patients don’t ever feel like they are just a number. It’s personal. Every person is given one-on-one attention for a full 40-minute session, creating the space to really understand what’s going on, not just physically, but holistically.
It’s a philosophy rooted in compassion, but also in empowerment. That approach starts with listening first.
“We really take the time to understand every symptom the patient is experiencing, as well as a picture of what their day-to-day is like. So many factors can contribute to physical pain, such as strain on a joint, twisting an odd way, or even holding stress in the muscles,” shares Courtney Doxsee, PT, DPT, and Regional Director for Platinum.
“It’s important to see the whole picture. We want people to be able to live their lives in the best way possible, and that starts with being physically able to do the things they enjoy.”
There’s a strong belief here that movement is essential to quality of life, and that most people have more control over their health than they realize. Genetics may set the stage for some, but they don’t dictate the outcome. The team works to help patients take ownership of their progress, building strength, resilience, and confidence along the way.
That’s especially true when it comes to strength training, which is something the clinic is particularly passionate about. Too often overlooked or underestimated, strength training plays a critical role in long-term health, from injury prevention to bone density to everyday function. At Platinum PT, it’s not about lifting something heavy for the sake of it, it’s about building a body that supports the life you want to live and functions the way you need it to, when you need it to.
For those dealing with pain or injury, getting started sooner rather than later can make all the difference. It’s difficult to book an appointment quickly with primary care physicians due to demand and other factors. Platinum PT encourages patients to begin care as soon as something feels “not quite right”. That early access can be key in preventing minor issues from becoming more serious, and potentially more difficult to resolve. They accept most insurance plans, helping make care more accessible when it’s needed most.
Within the clinic, the experienced and dedicated staff treat patients with conditions ranging from neck or hip pain to headaches and vertigo. They help people with physical pains, neuromuscular disorders, traumatic brain injuries, arthritis, and even balance issues. Additionally, patients also have access to specialized services, including a dry needling specialist and a TMJ specialist, allowing for more targeted treatment options under one roof.
After nearly a decade in Norfolk, the demand for this kind of personalized care has only grown. This summer, Platinum PT is expanding into the adjacent open space, creating more room to treat patients while maintaining the same level of individualized attention that has defined their work from the beginning.
With hours that run from 7:40 a.m. to 6:40 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Friday, the clinic is designed to fit into real-life schedules, because staying active, recovering from injury, and feeling strong shouldn’t be out of reach.
At its core, Platinum Physical Therapy isn’t just about rehab. It’s about helping people keep moving forward: stronger, more capable, and more in control of their health than they thought possible.
