WHAT SETS US APART
1-on-1 Sessions
Your time is valuable. To guarantee that you receive the quality care that you deserve, you will have a dedicated 1-hour session with your physical therapist. Your treatment will be tailored specifically to your needs so you can feel confident about returning to the activities you enjoy. You’ll know from the first visit what is causing your condition and how we plan on fixing it.
Rapid Access
Early evaluation and treatment are key to a faster recovery. Our commitment is to evaluate and begin treatment within 48 hours of your injury. Addressing pain or injury as soon as possible helps prevent small issues from becoming more complex and reduces the risk of developing compensatory movement patterns. Quicker access means less downtime and often means fewer visits to get you back to doing what you love.
Fellowship-Trained Physical Therapist
Our physical therapist is fellowship trained and can provide you with an in-depth understanding of what is causing your condition. This additional three years of orthopedic training allows us to look beyond your symptoms, address the root cause of your pain, and promote long-lasting results.
Relatability
We understand the determination and drive for your sport and the activities you love. Rather than telling you to completely stop your activities, we strive to find innovative ways to modify what you’re doing until you’re ready to confidently return. Our goal is to help you recover while keeping you engaged in the activities you enjoy as much as possible.
