Performance & Orthopedic Physical Therapy
You’re tired of being told to stop your activity or sport so you’ve avoided the healthcare system and pushed through a nagging pain or recurring injury that affects your ability to do what you love, the thing that makes you, you. You won’t be told to stop here at Ridgeline. We use education and find pain free movement to keep you active and guide you back to peak performance.
Don’t think it’s possible for you? I bet it is. Let’s talk.
“Strength doesn’t come from what you can do.
It comes from overcoming the things you once thought you couldn’t.”
— Rikki Rogers
What to Expect With Ridgeline Care.
Initial Assessment.
You will meet with Morgan for a comprehensive 60-minute assessment that incorporates movement, special tests, and discussion. A large focus of the initial session is to understand who you are as a person, your concerns, your beliefs and your goals. How you move is a very important piece of the puzzle of course, however, we will also discuss other lifestyle factors that may be impacting your pain and/or potential for optimal recovery. By the end of this session, the goal is to find a strategy to reduce your pain and then work together to restore your function.
Plan of Care.
From the initial assessment, together we will establish a detailed plan of care that is personalized to you and your lifestyle. The treatment plan may consist of education, skilled exercise progression, short-term activity modification and/or pain reducing manual techniques (dry needling, cupping, joint mobilization). Rarely will you be told to completely stop your activity, there is almost always a way to continue with load management and training adjustments. Follow-up visits usually range from 1-5 spread among many weeks or months, depending on your desires and your condition.
Continued Communication.
There’s really no “discharge” from care here at Ridgeline. You will have continued check-ins and communications even after you have fully returned to your activity and are feeling better. We want to be your biggest support system, for life. We want you to reach out when you have questions or concerns and will get back to you as soon as possible!
