Our Philosophy

Athletic Physical Therapy was created with one goal in mind: 100% recovery for each of our patients. We want to provide a healthy and active lifestyle free from pain and physical limitation, through caring, skillful, and personalized application of exemplary physical therapy services.

How do we achieve such great results?

The Active Rehabilitation Continuum or ARC was created by Stephen Clark, PT, DPT, MHS, OCS after 20 years of clinical practice. It synthesizes thousands of treatments and multiple treatment philosophies into one condensed physical therapy program that can help EVERY patient with ANY orthopedic condition. Careful training, keen observatory skills and solid clinical reasoning direct the physical therapist through 3 stages of recovery. Depending on your specific injury or condition, the ARC indicates what is appropriate for your body to HEAL QUICKER and how to avoid irritating the injured tissue (ligament, bone, tendon, muscle, nerve). Once the body starts to respond to therapy, the ARC systematically progresses your body by integrating all of your body parts and desired movements so that you gain motion, strength and balance. You and your therapist will achieve real long term results following the ARC and restore your body to its maximum potential.
