Activate your full potential with personalized wellness and fitness by a movement expert.
At Activate we believe in doing Physical Therapy differently. We are passionate that every individual has access to healthcare that allows them to move better, have less pain, and live a more functional life. At Activate your care is different because YOU are in control. We are here to guide you on your path to healing and optimal movement by working towards your goals. This will not be your typical Physician or PT visit. You have as much time as you need to address all your health and wellness concerns, and that entire visit is with your Doctor of Physical Therapy- no aides or techs.
Our treatment approach is comprehensive and holistic. The body is a complex structure and often our source of discomfort is not what we think! This can lead to many years of chasing symptoms without addressing the root cause of the issue. At Activate, we go to the source of the problem and then go above and beyond, providing preventative treatment to reduce the threat of future injuries. Our Physical Therapists have a broad treatment style compassing health + wellness to provide a complete treatment experience.
