Meet Your Physical Therapist
Hi, I’m Justin Ponce. I have been practicing as a physical therapist since 2018 with a Doctorate of Physical Therapy Degree from South College in Knoxville Tennessee and a Bachelor’s Degree in Exercise Physiology from Brigham Young University – Idaho.
I also hold certifications in Dry Needling and Therapeutic Pain Science, and have taken several courses on manual therapy and therapeutic exercise.
In addition to practicing as a physical therapist, you can find me coaching CrossFit classes at CrossFit Wylie, exercising at the gym, and spending time with my family.
I love to live a healthy lifestyle and believe the body is an amazing tool that can accomplish great things. I strive to implement a whole wellness approach to my practice and help show you that your body can do amazing things.
Outside of physical therapy, I love to spend time with my family traveling, trying new foods, running, lifting weights, and experiencing new things.
Tempered Physical Therapy Reviews
Justin was a miracle worker for me and my calf. The relief I felt in my calf after the very first dry needling therapy was a night and day difference. His knowledge in advanced therapy options specifically dry needling and cupping in conjunction with his treatment approach allowed me in just a few sessions to walk/run without pain and tightness for the first time in 6 months.
Justin helped me avoid surgery. I was told that in order for me to use my shoulder again the way I wanted was to have reconstructive surgery. My MRI showed I had bone spurs, biceps tendinitis, and several tears. I worked with Justin doing Dry Needling, exercise progressions and manual therapy. He helped me a ton! I am now back to doing all of my favorite CrossFit movements. I would highly recommend Justin to everyone.
I came to Justin because I was having pain in my hip when squatting. I chose to do physical therapy with him. He worked closely with me by sending me videos and programmed workouts to help rehab that area while still trying to maintain my fitness level. Within a few weeks, I was back to squatting normal. Still to this day I do the stretches and exercise he gave me for my hip.
Out of Network Physical Therapy
Tempered Physical Therapy is currently not credientialed with any insurance companies. This allows me to maintain a more personalized approach to care, without the constraints of insurance companies’ limitations on treatment duration, frequency, or the type of care I can provide. By not being bound by insurance contracts, I can focus on what is best for you as a patient—offering flexible scheduling, longer treatment sessions if necessary, and a holistic, hands-on approach to your rehabilitation. My goal is always to provide you with the best possible care, and I truly believe this model of practice enables me to achieve that. If you have any questions or concerns, I’m more than happy to discuss them with you.
