Welcome to

We are your local PT clinic; outdoor enthusiasts; here for you

Our goal is to meet or exceed your previous level of activity.  If you were inactive before your injury, let’s move past that and find the ideal level of activity for you. Some people need to run a marathon and some need to sprint for the last TV on Black Friday. Find your purpose and we’ll help you achieve it.

Everyone needs to learn to set aside time for themselves and everyone lives in the same 24/7. What changes are you willing to make to keep you from compromising your purpose? It is impossible to help others when you can no longer help yourself. Caring for family members or doing your job can create fatigue, closely followed by burn out, both physically and mentally. We can help you learn to focus on yourself so that in the future you can focus on others.

Orthopedic/Sports Injury Rehabilitation

Whether you are suffering from a sprain, strain or other injury,  our therapists will discuss with you the nature of the problem,  examine symptomatic tissues, search for faulty biomechanics, pinpoint strength deficits, assess neuromuscular control, and identify movements or postures that increase or decrease the pain.

Spinal Stabilization Training

The mechanics of the spine and the potential causes of back pain are often misunderstood. We take the time to explain your condition and educate you about how your back works. You will also learn to incorporate proper body mechanics and postural awareness during your work/home activities. Once back pain sets in, the muscles used to stabilize the segments of the spine become inhibited or hyperactive. By following a specific stabilization program, you can learn how to effectively activate these muscles and strengthen/balance the muscles stabilizing the segments of your spine. This will assist greatly in eliminating back pain.

Industrial Rehabilitation and Work Conditioning

The treatment of injured workers often involves education on proper body mechanics and postural awareness during specific work tasks, and physical conditioning. We review the job analysis of the injured worker and then structure a progressive exercise regimen to condition the involved structures to the level of physical ability needed for a safe return to work. We make every effort to keep employees on the job by offering early morning and evening clinic appointments. Our positive approach allows us to aggressively manage industrial injuries through proven techniques and motivate workers to take an active role in their recovery.

Surgical and Fracture Rehabilitation

Surgical intervention may be required for complex injuries. To ensure a successful outcome, progressive rehabilitation is often necessary to promote tissue healing and achieve functional goals. I have observed numerous operative procedures and consult regularly with local surgeons on emerging techniques. We structure your treatment plan based on stages of tissue healing, using modalities and/or bracing/taping as needed to decrease pain and edema while prescribing specific exercises to restore range of motion and strengthen weak muscles.

Sport Specific Exercise Prescription

Whether you are a competitive athlete or a weekend warrior, injury prevention is paramount. I share your passion for sports and recreational activities. With an extensive knowledge of biomechanics, functional anatomy and exercise physiology, we are an excellent resource for designing a strength and conditioning program tailored to meet the demands of your sport. These specific programs include practical tips for warm-up/cool-down, stretching, exercise progression and peak performance enhancement.

Custom Cycle Fitting

I am an experienced on and off road cyclist who combines my interest in cycling with my physical therapy practice.  I have an extensive knowledge of bike fitting, and am able to modify your existing bicycle and customize it to your individual quirks and asymmetries.  A correctly fitted bike will reduce overuse injuries such as quadriceps tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, neck and back pain, numbness and other issues common in cycling. I underwent training as a Bike Fit Technician by Serotta, and can use my Serotta size cycle to take measurements in order to have a custom bike built to your specifications.  I then send these measurements to the custom builder of your choice and they create your personal masterpiece. We have worked with Serotta (RIP), Donkalope (Local – steel is real!), Renovo (cool wood framed bikes from Portland), and Curtlo Cycles (custom aluminum bikes made in Winthrop).
