Our why:

We founded our practice to address a fundamental flaw in how physical therapy is traditionally approached. Why do we wait until people are injured before we tell them what they should have done differently? Furthermore, once someone completes physical therapy where do we send them to build on the gains made and to assist with cementing long term healthy habits?

Unfortunately, most fitness centers provide little guidance and certified personal trainers are a costly (and sometimes risky) option. We knew we needed to bridge the gap between healthcare and fitness. 

Our unique approach:

Whether you’re recovering from an injury, older adult, novice gym goer or seasoned athlete, we can identify physical deficits that may lead to future injury and address them before they become a serious problem. Minor movement impairments, when repeated over lengths of time, lead to major injuries.

Let us educate you on proper form, motor control, posture and joint protection so you can get back to your life and ensure you’re able to keep doing the things you love into your later years.

I will perform a full upper and lower body evaluation to assess impairments in order to provide exercise recommendations. Exam consists of strength, range of motion, flexibility and functional mobility assessments. A medical screening including comorbidities, surgical history, and past injuries will also be conducted to modify recommendations to your specific needs.

I will meet you at your home or gym, review your current exercise program and give recommendations on exercises to target impairments identified. I will teach you fundamentals of proper exercise to challenge your body with injury avoidance at the forefront.
