"Jayson is very good and personal even. He has very good knowledge with injuries. I had 2 surgeries on my left heel and one was a fusion. He's been giving solid advice from the start on my rehab to get back working. I highly recommend him to anyone needing any kind of physical therapy."

Frequently Asked Questions

-
No referral needed! We offer direct access care, which means you can schedule an appointment with us today without seeing your primary care doctor first. If you're dealing with shoulder pain, we can see you the same day if we have availability.
-
Recovery time varies depending on the severity of your injury, how long you've been dealing with it, and your goals. Some patients feel significant relief within a few weeks, while others with chronic issues or post-surgical rehab may take a few months. During your evaluation, we'll give you a realistic timeline based on your specific condition and create a plan to get you there as efficiently as possible.
-
We operate as an out-of-network practice, which means you pay directly for services. This allows us to spend 60-75 minutes one-on-one with you every visit—no insurance restrictions, no limitations on what we can do. Many patients use HSA/FSA funds or submit claims for out-of-network reimbursement, and we're happy to provide detailed receipts (superbills) to help with that process.
-
Your first visit is a comprehensive movement evaluation where we'll assess your shoulder mechanics, test range of motion, strength, and identify any compensation patterns contributing to your pain. We'll also discuss your goals—whether that's getting back to lifting, playing your sport, or just living pain-free. From there, we'll create a customized rehab plan and often start hands-on treatment during that first session.
-
In many cases, yes. We've helped countless patients avoid surgery through targeted rehab, manual therapy, and corrective exercise. That said, some injuries do require surgical intervention—and if that's the case, we'll be honest with you and help connect you with the right surgeon. If you do need surgery, we'll also guide you through pre-hab and post-surgical rehab to ensure the best possible outcome.
-
We treat you like an athlete—no matter your age or activity level. Our model is built on movement as medicine, root-cause solutions, and performance-driven rehab. You'll get 60-75 minute one-on-one sessions, advanced manual techniques like dry needling and cupping, and a customized plan that goes beyond just "rest and ice." We're also out-of-network, which means we answer to you, not your insurance company.
