You train the squat, bench, and deadlift. We understand every one of them. Fellowship-trained Doctors of PT who treat the athlete — not just the injury.
Generic PT tells you to stop lifting. We build your rehab around the barbell — because that's where you need to perform.
Your evaluation includes a movement screen under load. We assess your squat pattern, hip hinge, and bracing mechanics — because the problem almost never shows up lying on a table. We find what's actually breaking down under the bar.
We don't pull you off the platform unless there's a genuine safety reason. We modify your training around the injury — adjusting stance, grip, range of motion, and loading — so you keep building while you heal. Deload doesn't mean stop.
No techs. No handoffs. You see the same fellowship-trained Doctor of PT every single visit — someone who knows your programming, your competition timeline, and your movement history. Continuity is how we get results faster.
Lower back pain on deadlifts is rarely just a "tight back." We trace the chain — hip mobility, thoracic extension, bracing strategy, bar path — and fix the actual driver. That's why our patients don't keep coming back for the same injury.
We work around your meet schedule. Whether you're 12 weeks out or in the middle of a peak, we build your rehab to protect your prep — not blow it up. We know what a peaking block looks like and we plan accordingly.
The FAAOMPT credential — held by fewer than 1% of PTs in the country — means advanced hands-on diagnostic and treatment skills. When we put our hands on you, we're not guessing. We're applying the highest level of manual therapy available in the profession.
If it happened under the bar, we've seen it. Here's what powerlifters most commonly come to us with.
Deadlift and squat-related lumbar strain, disc issues, and SI joint dysfunction. We identify whether it's a mobility, stability, or technique problem — and fix it.
Groin pinching at the bottom of the squat is one of the most common powerlifting complaints. We address the joint, the surrounding tissue, and the movement pattern.
Patellar tendinopathy, IT band issues, and medial knee pain from squatting. We load the tendon correctly and rebuild your squat mechanics from the ground up.
Bench press shoulder pain, pec minor tightness, and AC joint irritation. We restore pressing mechanics so you can build back to full load without compensation.
Low-bar squat wrist pain, elbow tendinopathy from pressing, and grip-related forearm issues. We address the tissue and modify your setup to reduce stress.
Limited upper back extension affects your squat, deadlift, and bench. We restore thoracic mobility so you can brace properly and stay tight through the lift.
