Individual Care to Feel Better Faster

About Norman

Norman Schlact, MPT

My passion for helping people to heal from injuries inspired me to become a physical therapist. In my 25-plus years of experience, I have learned that no single approach fits every individual. That’s why I tailor treatments to each person’s needs.

Greatly enjoyed my experience with Norm at this location. He is very experienced and greatly helped me with my issue. I really appreciated how he tried to get me fixed and out of the clinic rather than keep me as a never ending customer. Would highly recommend

I was referred to Norman by a good friend of mine for debilitating lower back pain. Turns out one of discs has eroded away and was causing me terrible back pain. For months I had to crawl out of bed because my pain was so severe. On my first appointment w/ Norman, he was able to identify some areas to focus on and properly diagnose what was causing me pain. In subsequent sessions Norman provided me with several exercises and stretches to alleviate my back pain. After only a few weeks the pain was reduced significantly, I can get out of bed in the morning with only minor discomfort and each day gets better and better. This was a huge relief as I thought I’d have to live with this pain the rest of my life. Thank you Norman for helping me and providing me with the tools and guidance I need to acquire and maintain a pain-free lower back going forwards!

I tore both my Rotator Cuffs, within a 4 month period. I was referred to NORMAN at Sports and Wellness Therapy for my PT after the 2nd tear. It was such a positive experience after my 1st PT, at a FACTORY like, dirty and dinghy place as compared to NORMAN's PT studio. Norman is patient and works at your pace and within your pain threshold. He is excellent and a Master of his profession. I have seen tremendous improvement on my 2nd hand and a huge improvement even in my 1st Rotator Cuff as well. This improvement is in fewer sessions as compared to my 1st place for PT! I have gone from "NEED SURGERY" to "NO SURGERY NEEDED"!! I strongly recommend NORMAN and Sports and Wellness Therapy. GO to S&W Physical Therapy, if you want a customized and personal treatment with REAL progress that you can see, measure and feel good about!!!

From Rock Bottom to Walking Again — Norman, You Saved My Life. I don’t even know how to begin putting this into words… but I’ll try. Almost two years bedridden… ten knee surgeries… both legs crushed and fractured in a way most people will never understand. I had doctors telling me I’d never walk again. I had therapists treating me like I was already done. I lost hope. I lost myself. I felt like my life was over. And then… I met Norman. Norman didn’t just treat me—he believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself. He took on my case when most would’ve walked away. He worked with me one-on-one, with more care, knowledge, and dedication than I could’ve ever imagined. Because of Norman, I am walking pain-free today. Because of Norman, I got my freedom, my confidence, and my life back. Because of Norman, I was able to move back to Tampa with hope in my heart again. I’ve been through dozens of therapists before, and let me tell you—no one comes close. Norman isn’t just another therapist reading from a book—he lives this, breathes this, and fights for every single one of his patients like family. So if you’re reading this and feel like you’ve hit a wall, like you’ll never get better—go see Norman. He gave me my life back, and I know he can do the same for you. Thank you, Norman. I truly owe it all to you. If you’re reading this and thinking twice—don’t. Go see Norman. You’ll thank yourself later.

Norman Schacht, and his outstanding Physical Therapy skills, was just what I needed for recovery from a partial tear in my hip tendon. His one-on-one guidance, in his pristine office space, allowed the healing necessary to make my trip to Costa Rica possible! Each demanding PT session was followed by ultra sound, deep-tissue massage and CBD cream (or taping). All these factors, and other valuable nutrition tips, have led to complete recovery! If you need PT, Norman Schacht is the therapist to see!!
