Performance Physical Therapy for Athletes & Active Adults in Raleigh, NC

Mastering Movement. Maximizing Performance.

Helping athletes and active adults recover from pain, move better, and return to the activities they love.

3-Step Physical Therapy Process:

1. Determine the Cause of your Problem

You will have a 60-90-minute initial evaluation, during which we will discuss your goals, dreams, and aspirations and why your pain or impairments currently limit them. Your Doctor of Physical Therapy will then perform an in-depth assessment to determine the root cause of your issue(s).

2. Treat the Root Cause

We won’t tell you to “rest” and hope things improve over time. Based on your evaluation, we will treat your specific issue(s) to reduce your pain and prevent it from returning.

3. Teach you how to Live your Dream Life

Once your pain subsides, we will work with you to improve your overall performance. The goal is to return you to everyday activities and hobbies with a reduced risk of re-injury, better technique, and more efficiency.

In my eyes, we are all athletes training to be our best every day. Whether you’re a hobbyist, semi-professional, or professional in a sport, our bodies demand a lot. At Art of Physical Therapy, we address the cause of your current aches and pains and prevent new ones.

What to Expect

As a physical therapist, my main focus is the musculoskeletal system - how the bones, muscles, and nerves all work together.

At your initial evaluation, we will look at:

  • How you move and your specific movement patterns

  • Strength

  • Range of motion

  • Special tests for the body region(s) that are giving you the most trouble.

From there we will determine the interventions that are most effective and appropriate for you and begin working that day!

Prevention

Not in pain? Physical therapy is for you too!

A more sport-specific evaluation will be performed to assess what areas of fitness are most limited to determine how physical therapy can improve your overall performance.
