Services
Physical Therapy
Our physical therapy programs use Movement Systems Impairments (MSI) evaluation to create personalized treatment plans addressing neuromuscular pain, postural deficits, and mobility limitations. Through manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, and neuromuscular re-education, we focus on restoring function and preventing injury recurrence. Patients receive one-on-one care with evidence-based interventions like Graston Technique and therapeutic modalities.
Sports Performance Training
Specialized sports performance programs analyze movement patterns to enhance athletic capabilities. Using Functional Movement Screening (FMS) and sport-specific analysis, we develop strength conditioning plans that improve biomechanics, reduce injury risk, and optimize performance for athletes across disciplines like surfing, running, and mixed martial arts.
Telehealth Services
Telehealth appointments provide remote access to movement specialists for exercise program development and physical therapy guidance. This service offers customized home exercise plans and virtual consultations for patients seeking expert care from home, including out-of-state and international clients.
Manual Therapy
Our manual therapy techniques include joint mobilization, soft tissue mobilization, and neuromuscular re-education. Graston-certified therapists use stainless steel instruments to address tissue restrictions, while slow-motion video analysis helps patients visualize and correct movement impairments for improved functional outcomes.
Strength & Conditioning
Stage 4 strength and conditioning programs help patients exceed pre-injury performance levels. Using tools like TRX, battle ropes, and kettlebells, we create sport-specific training regimens that enhance power, endurance, and movement efficiency for athletes and active individuals returning to recreational activities.
