Denver's Physical Therapy for Barbell Athletes

You shouldn't have to choose between pushing your limits and staying healthy. Our physical therapists understand the demands of your sport because we've worked with athletes just like you—people who live for the sound of plates hitting the platform.

Every injury tells a different story, but here's what doesn't change: our commitment to keeping you training. We'll develop a customized program that accounts for your injury while keeping you as active as possible. No cookie-cutter protocols. No telling you to "just rest."

What Makes Us Different

  • Weightlifting Movement Assessment

    Pain changes how you move. Sometimes it's the injury itself. Other times it's a compensation pattern or muscle imbalance you've developed over time. We use video analysis to pinpoint exactly what's going wrong with your technique, then build a treatment plan that addresses the root cause—not just the symptoms.

  • Programs Built for Your Goals

    After we assess your movement, we create a rehab program that actually makes sense for lifters. We combine manual therapy techniques (including cupping and dry needling when appropriate) with exercises that bridge the gap between rehab and strength training. The goal isn't just to eliminate pain—it's to make you stronger than you were before.
