ABOUT US
A different kind of care for people who need more than standard therapy can offer.
Florence Myofascial Release and Physical Therapy is a private physical therapy practice in the Pee Dee area built on a single conviction: that most people in chronic pain and pelvic floor dysfunctions have not yet received the level of care their condition actually requires.
We specialize in complex, difficult-to-treat cases including chronic pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, and conditions that have often been minimized or misunderstood by conventional medicine. Our patients have often already tried medications, injections, surgeries, and multiple rounds of physical therapy without lasting relief. Here, every patient is seen one-on-one by a highly specialized therapist with the time, tools, and expertise to go further than standard care allows.
Our approach is whole-body and root-cause focused. We don't treat the site of pain or dysfunction we find what is driving it.
MEET YOUR THERAPIST
Sandra Martins-Skolny, PT
With more than 22 years of clinical experience across a wide range of settings hospitals, pediatric and adult rehabilitation, pelvic health, and specialized neurological care Sandra has built one of the most comprehensive practices in South Carolina.
​She is an expert-level John Barnes Myofascial Release therapist, a designation reached by only a small number of practitioners nationwide. Over the past six years alone, she has invested more than $100,000 in advanced continuing education and clinical technology not because it was required, but because her patients deserve the most effective care available.
"I built this practice for the patients who were told there was nothing more that could be done. There is almost always more that can be done it just requires a different approach."
Having personally navigated the challenges of endometriosis, Sandra brings both clinical expertise and genuine understanding to women's health and pelvic floor care. As a mother of four daughters, she is especially passionate about supporting women through pregnancy, postpartum recovery, and every stage of motherhood.
She continues to study, train, and refine her practice every year. Helping people recover especially when others have stopped trying is the work she cares about most.
CLINICAL TECHNOLOGY
TOOLS MOST CLINICS DON'T HAVE. UNDER ONE ROOF.
What sets Florence Myofascial Release and physical therapy apart isn't just expertise it's the ability to integrate advanced therapeutic technologies into a single, personalized plan of care. Each tool below is clinically meaningful on its own. Together, in the hands of an experienced therapist, they make possible outcomes that standard physical therapy cannot achieve.
Electrohydraulic shockwave technology that activates the body's own repair process at the cellular level effective for chronic tissue injuries and conditions unresponsive to conventional treatment.
Class IV Laser
High-powered therapeutic laser that reduces inflammation, accelerates tissue healing, and relieves pain including a specialized unit dedicated to pelvic floor treatment, one of very few in the region.
Dolphin Neurostim
Microcurrent neurostimulation that works with the nervous system to release chronic muscle tension, reduce scar tissue restrictions, and address pain at its neurological source.
PEMF Therapy
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy that supports cellular repair, reduces inflammation, and improves circulation a powerful complement to hands-on treatment, particularly for chronic conditions.
Biofeedback
Real-time monitoring that helps patients understand and retrain neuromuscular patterns especially valuable in pelvic floor rehabilitation, chronic pain, and stress-related conditions.
