Dr. Joe Olofsson is a Physical Therapist located in Ann Arbor, Michigan with a passion for helping people stay in motion. He is a specialist in Orthopedic Physical Therapy and believes that exercise is one of the strongest tools for promoting change in wellness, strength, mental health, and injury prevention.

​

With over 8+ years experience helping clients train for longevity, Dr. Olofsson is committed to helping his community reduce injuries, and improve their vitality through a transparent and optimistic approach. 

​

After working in a spine-specific clinic that managed neck and lower back pain as a “last resort” for some people – he truly discovered how important lifestyle, strength training and whole-body wellness is to preventing injuries and pain. 

​

Why he started OLO Physical Therapy & Wellness: 

​

After many years of working in diverse physical therapy clinics around the country, he recognized many pitfalls in our medical system. Not enough 1-on-1 care, rushed appointments, unattainable demands from insurance, and pigeon-holed care plans were just a few of them. 

 

Dr. Olofsson knew his clients deserved better, and launched OLO Physical Therapy & Wellness in 2020.

OLO was built to strive for

Optimal Level Of...
