Serving East Liberty
Pittsburgh Physical Medicine & East Liberty
East Liberty has undergone one of Pittsburgh's most remarkable transformations over the past decade — from a struggling commercial corridor to one of the city's most vibrant, walkable, and economically diverse neighborhoods. Anchored by Google's Pittsburgh headquarters at Bakery Square, Whole Foods, Hotel Indigo, and a growing residential base, East Liberty is now home to one of the highest concentrations of tech workers, young professionals, and creative-class residents in western Pennsylvania.
Pittsburgh Physical Medicine is literally in the heart of East Liberty at 5916 Penn Ave. We are walkable from every apartment building, office, and co-working space in the neighborhood. If you work at Google's Pittsburgh office, live in the Bakery Living apartments, or frequent the Penn Ave corridor, we are your most convenient option for chiropractic care and physical therapy — no drive required.
Who We Treat in East Liberty
The East Liberty tech and professional community is one of the most desk-intensive workforces in Pittsburgh. Engineers, designers, product managers, and startup employees at the companies clustered around Bakery Square spend enormous amounts of time seated — and the postural consequences are predictable: forward head posture, upper trapezius strain, cervicogenic headaches, and lower back pain from prolonged sitting. We see this pattern daily and treat it extremely effectively with a combination of chiropractic adjustment, physical therapy movement retraining, and soft tissue work.
East Liberty's fitness-forward culture — the neighborhood supports multiple gyms, CrossFit boxes, yoga studios, and the running community that uses Frick Park and the surrounding trail network — means we also treat a high volume of sports and training-related injuries. Weightlifting shoulder injuries, running overuse conditions, CrossFit-related lower back and knee issues, and acute sports injuries are bread and butter for our team.
The neighborhood's significant unhoused and economically vulnerable population also uses our clinic — we treat patients regardless of background, and our in-network status with UPMC Health Plan covers a wide range of Pittsburgh-area residents.
