What we treat

Athlete setting up a deadlift, physical therapy for active people in Farmers Branch

Most people come in pointing at one spot: the knee, the low back, the shoulder. That's where it hurts, but it's rarely where the problem started. Pain usually shows up where your body has been doing more than its share of the work. So wherever it hurts, the approach is the same. A full-body movement assessment to find what's actually driving it, then a plan to fix it so it stops coming back.

Back and neck pain

Human spine highlighted from neck to low back, back and neck pain physical therapy

Low back pain, disc bulges and herniations, neck pain, stiffness, and pain that flares when you lift, sit or run. Your back is often the hardest worker in your body, covering for hips and a mid back that don't move well. Rest calms it down. It doesn't teach the rest of your body to share the load. That's what we work on.

Hip and knee pain

Knee absorbing load mid-stride, hip and knee pain physical therapy

Runner's knee, patellar tendinopathy, IT band pain, hip flexor and hip impingement pain, labral irritation, and arthritis, including being told you're "bone on bone." The knee usually takes the blame for what the hip and foot aren't doing. We look at the whole chain, then build the strength and control to take the pressure off.

Foot, ankle and lower leg pain

Bones of the foot and ankle with the Achilles tendon highlighted, foot and ankle pain physical therapy

Ankle sprains (including the ones that keep happening), Achilles tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, shin splints and calf strains. Your feet meet the ground first, so how they move changes everything above them. We restore how your foot and ankle absorb load, then build the capacity for the running, jumping or training you want to get back to.

Shoulder and elbow pain

Rotator cuff tendinopathy and tears, shoulder impingement, labral irritation, tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. Shoulders rarely fail on their own. A stiff mid back or rib cage changes how the shoulder has to work, especially under a barbell, a club or a racket. We fix the system, not just the joint.

Nerve pain

Sciatic nerve path from the low back down the leg, sciatica physical therapy

Sciatica, pinched nerves, radiculopathy and carpal tunnel. Nerve pain is scary because it's sharp, it travels, and it doesn't follow the rules. Most of the time the nerve is irritated, not damaged. We calm it down, give it room to move, and rebuild your confidence to load it again.

Rehab after surgery

ACL reconstruction, rotator cuff repair, Achilles repair, labral repair and other orthopedic surgeries. The surgeon's protocol gets you through rehab. We take you from there back to the sport or activity you had surgery for in the first place.

Physical therapy by activity

Running

Knee, hip, shin, Achilles and foot pain that shows up every time mileage climbs. First 5K to marathon, trail, ultra and Hyrox.

Physical therapy for runners →

Lifting and hybrid training

Back, hip and shoulder pain that caps your lifts. The goal is getting you back under the bar, not away from it.

Golf, tennis and pickleball

Back, shoulder, elbow and hip pain from rotational sports.

Physical therapy for golfers →

Staying active

Walking, hiking, gardening, keeping up with your kids. If you want to keep doing it without thinking about pain, that counts.

Frequently asked questions

Can physical therapy help a herniated disc or sciatica?

In most cases, yes. Disc findings show up on MRIs even in people with no pain, so the image rarely tells the whole story. We focus on how your body is moving and loading, calm the irritation, and build back the capacity to do what you want.

Do I need an MRI before starting physical therapy?

No. Most people don't need imaging to start. If anything in your evaluation suggests you do, I'll tell you.

Can physical therapy help arthritis or "bone on bone" knees?

Yes. What shows up on an X-ray and how much it hurts often don't line up. Building strength and changing how the joint is loaded can make a real difference, even when the X-ray looks bad.

I've already done physical therapy and it didn't work. Why would this be different?

Most clinics treat the spot that hurts, with a similar set of exercises for everyone. Here, every session is 60 minutes, one-on-one, and the plan comes from a full-body assessment and your goals.

Do you use dry needling?

Yes, when it helps. It's a tool to calm pain down so you can train, never the whole plan.
