Receiving advice to "rest" and take painkillers, with no lasting improvement.

Waiting to see a specialist, only to be given generic exercises that don't alleviate the pain.

Many of our clients came to us feeling exactly as you do now. There is HOPE, and we are here to support you.


We believe that POSTPARTUM IS FOREVER, and your care is essential.

We understand that chronic pain or pelvic dysfunction, especially postpartum —can rob you of the joys that life has to offer, leaving you disconnected from the people and pursuits that you love.

Experiencing chronic pain after childbirth is more common than many realize. Studies indicate that more than a third (35%) of postpartum women experience pain during sexual intercourse (dyspareunia), and 32% suffer from low back pain.


At Arancia, we are dedicated to helping individuals in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond reclaim the vibrant, active lives they deserve.

When chronic pain strikes—whether in your knee, lower back, neck, or shoulders—or results from sports or exercise injuries, it's natural to hope it will resolve on its own. However, without proper intervention, pain often persists and can worsen over time.

While reaching for painkillers may provide temporary relief, they do not address the underlying causes and can have adverse long-term health effects. Additionally, previous consultations with healthcare professionals or physical therapists may have left you feeling confused or skeptical, especially if their advice didn't lead to lasting relief.

No matter the stage of life you are in, you can enjoy EVERY MOMENT of it.

Our goal is to help you to reclaim your life, restore your confidence, and finally live free from pain.

We would love to help you by inviting you to book a call to talk with one of our physical therapist specialists at our physical therapy clinic in Cranston, RI to find out what can be done to help you.

The fact that you’ve tried any or all of these things already, like many people we see, is actually a GOOD THING because when you know what doesn’t work – you are closer to finding the thing that does!

Click the link below to book a call with us if you would like to get some solid advice given to you over the phone. The phone call is complimentary and there is no obligation to book any appointments with us after the call is over. Our goal is to help you make the right decision about what to do next for the best results.

KEEP ACTIVE

So that you are able to run after your kids all day, take your grandchildren to the park with ease, enjoy a round of golf, a refreshing run, or a nice walk.

So you are not always reaching in the cupboard for medication to ease the pain whenever it strikes. Avoiding painkillers is better for your long-term health, especially because it is only masking the problem rather than fixing it!

AVOID PAINKILLERS

Because we will help you get to the root cause of what is going on quickly (often within 20 minutes!) you don’t have to get to the point of facing surgery.

AVOID SURGERY

UNDERSTAND

Finally, you can enjoy quality time with family and friends without aches and pains stealing this time away. Finally, you can get a good night’s sleep without tossing and turning trying to find that one position that feels right.

ENJOY LIFE

Basically, we love to help people GET BACK TO LIVING LIFE free from the curse of chronic pain.

We believe that people aged 40+ and those suffering from pelvic health conditions should have exceptionally better access to great care to help them stay active, mobile, and living free from painkillers.

Inspiring stories of Arancia Patients —

I am a mouth cancer survivor and of all of the physical therapists I have been to, Arancia PT is totally different. They provide a soothing atmosphere and relaxing, painless treatments. I recommend you try it for yourself if you want true physical and emotional healing.

-Donna A.

Working with Dr. Jess is wonderful. I have a length-leg discrepancy that has hindered me my whole life. Dr. Jess is quite precise and purposeful in her treatments and is very talented as a healer, physically & emotionally. I had a wonderful experience at Arancia and they gave me my life back!

-Catherine C.

I was in a car accident 40 years ago and have been dealing with neck pain, restricted motion, and constant headaches almost daily. Dr. Papa is an exceptional Physical Therapist and together we made a plan to get me out of pain quickly. She is an incredible healer and I recommend her if you want lasting relief.
