What we do

We always assess and never guess

Pain-free isn't game-ready. Every plan is built from testing, and we retest to prove you're progressing.

01

Sports Physical Therapy

Injury, nagging pain or a plateau. We find what's actually limiting you and build you back up.

More details

For athletes dealing with a sports injury, pain that keeps coming back, or a plateau that won't move. We find what's actually limiting you, not just where it hurts, and build a plan that restores your capacity to train and compete.

  • A full evaluation of the injury and how you move around it
  • Objective strength and power testing so progress is measured, not guessed
  • A plan that moves from rehab into real training: running, jumping, cutting, lifting
02

ACL & Return-to-Sport Rehab

Cleared isn't ready. We get you strong, explosive and confident enough to sprint, jump and cut again.

More details

Most of our ACL athletes have already been cleared by their surgeon or finished regular PT, but they still feel weak, hesitant, or not ready to sprint, jump and cut.

Return to sport here is criteria-based, not timeline-based. You're ready when your strength, power, how fast you produce force, change of direction and movement quality all test within 90% of your other side. Not when a certain number of months has passed.

Running Rehab & Performance

Recurring pain or cut-back mileage. Get back to consistent running, stronger and more efficient.

More details

For runners dealing with recurring pain, cut-back mileage, or races that aren't going the way training says they should. We combine strength work, building your body's ability to handle load, and running-specific analysis.

Questions

Common questions

How is this different from regular physical therapy?

Every session is built around testing and your sport, not a generic exercise sheet. We don't stop when the pain goes away. We keep going until your strength, power and movement show you're ready for the demands of your sport.

Do I have to have had surgery to work with you?

No. We work with athletes who never had surgery, and with athletes who already finished surgery and regular PT but still don't feel ready. Start with an evaluation and we'll tell you where you stand.

How do I know when I'm ready to return to sport?

It's criteria-based, not timeline-based. You go back when your testing shows you're ready: strength, power, change of direction and movement quality close to your other side. Not just because a set number of weeks has passed.

Do you work with youth and high school athletes?

Yes. We work with athletes from youth through pro, and every athlete gets the same testing-driven plan.

Where do I start?

Book an evaluation, or schedule a discovery call if you want to talk first and see if we're the right fit.

Not sure which service fits?

Start with an evaluation. We'll show you the gaps and the plan to close them.
