​You’re frustrated by nagging injuries that derail your workouts or daily life.

​

  • You’ve wasted time (and money) on quick fixes that never last.

​

  • You worry every time pain flares up — “Is this the beginning of something worse?”

​

  • You’ve tried Physical Therapy before, but felt rushed, unheard, and left with cookie-cutter exercises.

​

​

You’re not alone — many of our patients came to us after the same experiences. They thought, “Maybe this is just how it is now.” Until they discovered a different path.

Sound Familiar?

Here’s how we Break the Cycle:

​

  • Find the root cause. With advanced Osteopractic training and Fellowship-level Expertise, we identify the why behind your pain instead of chasing symptoms.

​

  • Quick relief & lasting results. Most patients feel relief within the first few sessions, but we don’t stop there — we provide the roadmap to permanent pain relief and the coaching to maintain results for life.

​

  • One-on-one care, every time. No rushed visits or being passed around. You get uninterrupted 60-minute sessions directly with your specialist.

​

  • Support between visits. Access to your Physical Therapist through our secure app, plus guided exercise programs tailored to your lifestyle.

This is Physical Therapy designed for Active Adults who refuse to settle for “temporary fixes.”

Real People: Real Results

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

Kay P.

Dr. Patrick was my last hope, I was sick and tired of being sent to get an x-ray and/or MRI only to pay for useless diagnoses or suggesting cortisone shots...I wanted my issue to be fixed with an unusual inner knee pain, back, and hip issues ... I did 6 sessions, and within the 2nd session, my knee pain was barely even noticeable. Dr. Patrick knew my goal was to be able to play pickleball without knee pain and delivered ... He really changed my life ... With his knowledge of the body mechanics, where the pain causes are, and guidance, he, too, can change your outlook in pain management.

Elizabeth R. 

...On day one limping after foot surgery, by the end of our sessions I am biking daily, and walking 10,000 steps with no pain. 100 percent recommended!

Sarah T. 

We cannot recommend Dr Patrick enough! My daughter is a highly competitive swimmer and unfortunately dealt with both scoliosis as well as two shoulder injuries this year at separate times...We loved his approach with massage, cupping, stretching, dry needling and targeted strength training...but most of all we loved our results. My daughter actually cried leaving her last session, she looked forward to every session with him and was so sad when she "graduated." She is 14, so that says a LOT!

Dave L. 

Dr. Patrick made an Impact in only two sessions In relieving my chronic Plantar Fasciitis. Highly recommend his services.
