Why I set out to close the gap I kept seeing in my clinic: what comes after PT?
If you’ve ever “graduated” from physical therapy, you may know this moment:
You’re finally feeling a little stronger, moving a little better, and motivated to keep going.
And then… you’re discharged.
Just as your confidence is building, the support disappears.
As a physical therapist, I’ve seen it happen too many times. Patients recover from
surgery or learn to manage a chronic condition, and they want to keep improving—but
they’re not sure how to safely bridge the gap between rehab and the active life they’re
craving. And honestly, I didn’t know where to send them.
A patient 8 weeks out from a joint replacement is only just beginning a 12-month
recovery. A patient managing chronic back pain may have unlocked the tools to reduce
flare-ups, but still wants to build a safe, consistent plan around their favorite activities.
Another may choose not to have surgery at all, and instead wants to return to sport or
heavier exercise in a way that accommodates their condition.
I knew they needed more than a printed home exercise program.
And I felt helpless—and a little ashamed—that I didn’t have an answer.
You value guidance, want to do things right, and need a coach who sees your whole
journey—not just the exercises.
You want more than a coach—you want a partner who can help you tell the difference
between needing a doctor and needing a plan.
Rise MVMT Co was created to fill that gap. This isn’t physical therapy (unless it’s
needed and appropriate in the states where I’m licensed). This is curated exercise
programming and trusted education—so you can move forward confidently without fear
of injury or doing something “wrong.”
Whether you’re recovering from joint surgery, managing a long-standing condition, or trying to rebuild strength after years of avoiding movement, you deserve more than just clearance to move—you deserve support while you do it.
You’ve worked hard to get where you are—and you deserve care that honors that effort. At Rise MVMT Co, this next chapter is about more than checking boxes or pushing through pain. It’s about rebuilding trust in your body, gaining clarity in your plan, and feeling empowered every step of the way. I’d be honored to walk that path with you.
