Services
Postural Restoration Program
This specialized approach identifies body asymmetries and their impact on musculoskeletal, nervous, respiratory, and visual systems. We collaborate with dentists, optometrists, and other specialists to address root causes of pain and improve full-body function through targeted interventions.
Manual Therapy
Our clinicians deliver hands-on interventions including joint mobilization, myofascial release, and soft tissue techniques. These methods improve mobility, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain through skilled tactile assessment and treatment tailored to each patient's specific needs.
Exercise Education
Personalized exercise programs are developed based on comprehensive evaluations, focusing on functional movements that align with individual goals. We teach proper form, create home/gym routines, and integrate rehab protocols to enhance recovery and prevent re-injury.
Functional Stability Training
This method teaches proper engagement of abdominal and diaphragm muscles to improve movement efficiency. We identify compensatory patterns and correct them through targeted exercises that enhance core activation and body-wide coordination.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
We collaborate with local surgeons to implement customized pre- and post-operative protocols. Our evidence-based approach supports healing, restores mobility, and rebuilds strength following procedures involving shoulders, knees, hips, spine, and extremities.

I tore my ACL and had it repaired in September 2020. I was quite nervous about starting Physical therapy as I had never been before and I was still quite immobile. When I hobbled into alpine PT for the first time, I knew I had come to the right place! Everybody was so welcoming and supportive. My physical therapist, Eli, was pivotal in my successful recovery. I would not be where I am today, completely recovered, without his hard work, dedication, and encouragement! Its obvious that everybody at alpine PT deeply cares for the patients and their recovery. I always looked forward to going in!

I began working with Jeremiah 2 years ago on chronic neck pain which had plagued me for years. I had surgery in 2007 and despite endless PT, medication, acupuncture ect I had ongoing pain which was terribly frustrating. I am a physician and a colleague recommended Alpine and cautioned that their approach was unique and almost certainly different from anything I had tried before. That proved to be true. It was also true that for the first time in over 10 years I had a dramatic improvement in my pain. It was a truly remarkable experience. The approach is simple and seemed a little voodoo at

Alpine was recommended by my primary care doctor, and is unlike other physical therapy I've done in the past. Jeremiah and the other folks at Alpine offer integrative exercises which are subtle but powerful. My TMJ dysfunction is connected to a range of imbalances in my body, and working with Alpine was been transformational.

Hard to tell if they aren't a scam. I went in with a shoulder issue and had an appointment with Chris. I'd asked for exercises I could do at home to address the injury and instead was give things like: a sheet on other kinds of footwear. This after Chris indicated that I walked fine, had no issues there and even complimented me on my choice of shoes saying they were highly recommended. Oh, and the shoulder issue? That was from a sports accident. Weird PT to say the least. I was given some breathing exercises and cat/cow to do at home. Almost surreal how indirect and irrelevant the exercises were

I have had range of motion issues, lower back pain and more for years. After doing a lot of research I discovered PRI ( Posture Restoration), and noticed alpine was one of the only places in the state that offers this service. Eli educated me on my condition and helped me diagnose an issue that has been with me for year's. I finally feel like i have a path to recovery so I can get back to doing the sports and activities I love. Staff was welcoming and facilty was clean and professional.

I came in to see Chris to fix some shoulder pain I had developed and it turned in to a much more comprehensive approach. Other PTs Ive seen in the past just asked what hurt, did a few exercises for a few weeks then sent me on.
Turns out I had a lot of other imbalances and Chris has jumped into in a much more holistic approach with fantastic results. Hes also been working with me me on other side exercises to help with golf and skiing! They have a super knowledgeable staff, and Allie at the front is wonderful and always helpful. Harvey can be a little socially awkward but once you

Eli and the support staff at Alpine PT were excellent to work with. I received physical therapy about a year ago for a chronic hamstring issue, and was pretty skeptical going in due to the long-term pain. Eli addressed my issue immediately and worked with me to resolve other minor pain issues as well (all while dealing with the brand-new pandemic protocols). The at-home work that he provided continues to be useful to keep my body working and running. A few weeks into PT my pain issues were gone, and I now have the tools to keep them from coming back again. I highly recommend Alpine PT if you have
