Move like you,
only without the pain.

Terapia Clinic is a private rehabilitation practice dedicated to the quiet craft of moving well. We pair clinical precision with the patience to treat the cause — not the symptom — so the result is a return to you, not a managed limitation.

Our Philosophy

We don’t rush bodies. We listen to them.

At Terapia Clinic, every patient begins not with a treatment plan, but with an assessment. We study how you load, how you compensate, where the pain refers from — and then we prescribe only what we’d prescribe a teammate.

Our physical therapists are doctorate-trained, our osteopathic protocols are evidence-led, and our suites are private by design. The goal is never a permanent appointment. The goal is to get you back to your sport, your work, your life — and out of our schedule.

  • Doctorate-level physical therapists on every case
  • Evidence-based protocols — no fads, no shortcuts
  • Private suites, one therapist per patient
  • Home programs and return-to-sport plans included
The Practice

Treatments, considered.

Six disciplines, one philosophy. Every protocol is selected for evidence, durability and return-to-function — never for novelty.

Sports injury rehabilitation session
01

Sports Injury Rehabilitation

ACL recovery, tendinopathy, muscle tears, joint sprains. Loaded progressions and return-to-sport testing — built around your sport, not a template.

  • ACL recovery
  • Tendinopathy
  • Return-to-sport
  • Isokinetic testing

Osteopathic manipulation treatment
02

Osteopathic Manipulation

High-velocity, low-amplitude techniques, muscle energy and myofascial release — calibrated to your tissue tolerance and the joint, never the protocol.

  • HVLA
  • Muscle energy
  • Visceral
  • Cranial

Manual therapy soft tissue work
03

Manual Therapy & Soft Tissue

Joint mobilization, myofascial release, trigger-point and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization — for restriction, not relaxation.

  • Pre-hab
Discuss this
Trigger-point therapy and adjunctive treatment
06

Trigger-Point Therapy & Adjuncts

Targeted trigger-point release, cupping, kinesio taping and shockwave for chronic tendinopathy. Adjunctive — never the whole plan.

  • Shockwave
  • Taping

Inside Terapia Clinic — treatment suite
Our Story

A clinic built
the way we’d want
to be treated.

We opened Terapia Clinic in 2014 with a small idea: that rehabilitation in Lebanon deserved the same rigor as any sports-medicine teaching hospital, dressed in the calm of a private practice.

A decade later, that idea still runs the clinic. We see fewer patients than most. We spend longer on each. And we’ve never had a reason to advertise — the athletes, the post-op patients, and the parents we treat send their teammates, their colleagues, and eventually, their families.

“The best result is when a patient stops thinking about the injury — and just goes back to living.”

Your Visit

Four steps, no surprises.

  1. 01

    Assess

    A 60-minute movement assessment, on the record, with the clinician who will treat you. Hands-on examination, special tests, gait and load analysis. You leave with a working diagnosis — whether or not you book again.

    60 min · complimentary through June
  2. 02

    Plan

    We map your protocol over weeks or months — with session frequency, milestones and return-to-sport criteria laid out clearly. You take it home. You decide.

    Same day · no commitment
  3. 03

    Treat

    In a private suite, with the same clinician. We measure range, strength and pain at every visit — so we can demonstrate progress, not promise it.

    45–60 min · private suite
  4. 04

    Discharge

    A home program direct to your phone, a six-week check-in, and a return-to-sport sign-off when criteria are met. We’d rather discharge you than retain you.

    Six-week review included
Real Results

Measured, not promised.

Drag the divider. Real patients of Terapia Clinic — range of motion and posture documented with consent, in calibrated light, untouched.

The Space

A quiet place to be looked after.

Five private treatment suites, a daylight gym floor, and a coffee that’s actually good. We designed it for the patient who doesn’t want a crowded waiting room.

In Their Words

Quiet recoveries,
loud referrals.

I’ve been to clinics in London, in Paris. Terapia is the only one that ever discharged me on time. They told me I didn’t need another session yet. I’ve never trusted a clinic more.

Layla N.Beirut · ACL rehab, 2023
★★★★★

After two surgeons told me I’d never run again, Dr. Khoury rebuilt my knee over nine months. I ran a half-marathon last spring. Restraint is rarer than skill in this industry — she has both.

Maya K.Jounieh · post-meniscectomy, 2022
★★★★★

I came in for shoulder pain. I left with a complete diagnosis of why my mechanics had failed, a written program for the next twelve weeks, and an invoice that was lower than I expected. I haven’t been anywhere else since.

Sara H.Metn · rotator cuff, 2024
★★★★★

It’s the only clinic where I’ve seen a therapist put the needles down and say ‘we don’t need these today.’ I trust them with my mother’s back, which is the only review that matters.

Frequently Asked

The questions we’re asked, honestly answered.

If yours isn’t here, ask us at the assessment — we don’t mind being asked anything.

Ask in person
Will the treatment hurt?

Manual therapy can be uncomfortable in the moment, but never painful in the way an injury is. We work within your tissue tolerance, communicate at every step, and stop the moment you ask.

Do I need a referral from a doctor?

No. You can book an assessment directly. If we identify anything that needs imaging or a surgical opinion, we coordinate the referral — and we work in lockstep with your surgeon if you already have one.

How many sessions will I need?

Honestly: it depends on the injury and how you load. After your assessment you receive a written plan with a session count, milestones and a discharge target — not an open-ended subscription.

Do you treat non-athletes?

About half of our patients aren’t athletes — office-workers with neck pain, parents with low-back pain, post-op patients getting back to walking. Sports rehab is a methodology, not a clientele.

What languages can I be seen in?

English, French and Arabic, by all of our clinicians. We have a translator on call for German and Italian for our patients flying in from abroad.

I’m flying in for post-op rehab. Can you help?

Yes. About a fifth of our post-op patients fly in. We coordinate with your surgeon, arrange airport pickup, a partner hotel five minutes from the clinic, and a daily treatment cadence during your stay.
