Our founder and lead provider is Tiziano Marovino who is the only AAIPM board certified PT diplomate in pain management in Michigan and is the former director of the Pain Therapy Center of Southeastern MI..

Our center was founded on the premise that a significant proportion of physical therapy patients do not respond well to the conventional "movement-based approach" treatment model prevalent in Physical Therapy today. Function through exercise is the goal, however, for too many patients, there can be no function unless pain is first controlled. With pain control improved mood, stress, sleep and physical activity levels follow (Marovino and Tassone,2023)

At TLC Group we recognize that not all of you can simply exercise your way back to good health, at least not without some pain management. Pain management at TLC Group means focusing on inflammation- the primary cause of musculo-skeletal pain. Our ability to visualize (via ultrasound) and treat inflammation in muscle, tendon and all soft tissue is unmatched anywhere.

Our facility is also involved in state- of- the- art medical device research and as a contracted research organization (CRO) we perform this on behalf of industry sponsors and prominent pain organizations. We have technology that is simply not available anywhere else. Our patients are the benefactors since we combine these exciting technologies which include regenerative therapies, with our more conventional manual/exercise and alternative treatments (acupuncture/cupping) to

provide every chronic pain patient a unique blending of innovative, personalized and clinically proven regimens. Our treatment interventions are constantly being evaluated so that we offer only the best possible treatment combinations for our patients.

We are a powerful thought leadership team that transcends beyond day to day patient treatments. We leverage our patient interactions to generate  important clinical data used to uncover transformative relationships between exposures (treatments) and outcomes. We provide data driven analyses that offer insights into which treatments work the best on which patients by using effect size analysis and so much more. We have well over 150 publications in Medical, Chiropractic, Massage, Diagnostic Ultrasound and Physical Therapy journals and give regular presentations around the globe including the World Congresses of Physical Therapy (Dubai, 2023). We are not your traditional physical therapy center. Our prior PT organization was the only Michigan based PT company that won national excellence awards (3 of them) between 2004 and 2013 at which time they were acquired by another

firm. We know how to build premiere Physical Therapy centers and our service delivery model has been recognized as one of the highest in the industry.

At TLC Group-Chronic Pain Solutions we understand how to build excellence and we are a true direct access PT facility. Our referrals come from the most genuine and autonomous source--other patients. Call us for a free injury assessment-use code 007 for a same or next day appointment.
