Services
Post-Operative Care
Specialized physical therapy following surgeries on hips, knees, shoulders, and other joints. Our therapists create progressive exercise plans to restore mobility and strength while minimizing scar tissue. We focus on accelerating recovery through manual therapy and functional movement training, helping patients return to pre-surgery activity levels.
Focused Shockwave Therapy
Non-invasive treatment using high-energy sound waves for chronic tendon and soft tissue conditions. This therapy stimulates healing in areas like plantar fasciitis and rotator cuff injuries through tissue regeneration and improved blood flow. Sessions typically last 10-20 minutes with multiple sessions often required for optimal results.
Running Rehabilitation
Comprehensive evaluation combining video analysis and DorsaVi sensor technology to assess running mechanics. Our specialists identify injury risks and movement inefficiencies through detailed gait analysis and footwear evaluation. Personalized treatment plans improve running efficiency and prevent recurring injuries through targeted exercises and biomechanical corrections.
Manual Therapy
Skilled hands-on techniques targeting muscles, tendons, and joints to improve mobility and function. This includes soft tissue massage, joint mobilizations, and stretching to reduce inflammation and pain. Our therapists use manual therapy alongside exercise programs to enhance tissue repair and restore normal movement patterns.
Vestibular Rehab Therapy
Specialized exercise programs designed to improve balance and reduce dizziness from vestibular disorders. Our therapists conduct comprehensive evaluations of balance, gait, and visual stability to create customized treatment plans. This therapy helps patients regain confidence in daily activities while reducing fall risks through targeted balance exercises.

Due to living an active lifestyle, I've certainly experienced quite a few physical therapy clinics over the years while rehabilitating from sports-induced knee, back and shoulder injuries. My latest was the reattachment of my pronator tendon at my elbow which I tore playing golf. I spent about 6 weeks with Resolve PT, primarily working with Jen, but also having a few sessions with Maddie. I found both to be extraordinarily skilled and fully committed to getting me back to playing golf again at a high level, even stronger than before my injury. Rather than just focusing on a exercise plan to address

I went in for a running evaluation as more of a tune-up to prevent injury rather than treatment for an existing injury. Jen did a great assessment that identified areas that I could benefit from strengthening. It was spot on as I was starting to have minor "niggles" in my right hip which also showed up in both my strength test and my running form video. I also received a lot of positive feedback on my overall form so I didn't leave feeling that I needed to change my running form. Overall, it was a great experience and something I would consider doing again annually.

For a few weeks, Ive been going to Resolve to address some softball-induced knee pain and Ive really come to enjoy going to my appointments. Everyone is so personable and inviting, its easy to forget youre at physical therapy. Maddie is very knowledgeable and I completely trust her guidance in getting me back to form. She is a fantastic PT to work with and Im happy to know shes around for the next time I inevitably injure myself. If youre looking for physical therapy, I strongly recommend giving Resolve a shot.

RESOLVE Physical Therapy.the absolute BEST PTs I have EVER experienced! The whole team is professional, through and through, and absolutely the friendliest. Jen is a master in shoulder rehab, not that she doesnt help with other issues, but my experience was perfect! I was reticent to go to PT due to a previous bad experience with another PT office, but Jen alleviated that fear on my first visit. I am amazed at her knowledge and the great modalities she and the team have. I recommend Jen and the team (Jenny (owner), Maddie and Taneya (admin coordinator)) unconditionally!
