How We Treat:

What Patients Have to Say
  • Nicole H.

    This is just the kind of facility I was looking for with a great PT, and access to a lot of exercise equipment to really get stronger and be able to run again! With the support and guidance from Mollie, I am happy to finally be starting to return to running!

  • Kyle A.

    I have been to many physical therapists and running clinics in the past with limited success. I was shocked with the results and continued support from my physical therapist. They were truly a miracle worker.

  • Bruno E.

    I cannot begin to explain how she's changed the way I feel and how I can function in daily life and playing sports. I have quite a bit of experience with PTs and Upright Athlete’s are simply the best I've found.

  • Carolyn B.

    I have had such a great experience at Upright Athlete! My therapist worked on my shoulder and I've had great results. I referred a friend at work to Upright Athlete, and my co-worker sings my therapist’s praises (100% better than another PT she tried).

  • Paul M.

    Active Edge and Upright Athlete has given me hope to not only get myself in shape but when the aches and pains of a 60 year body occur they can take care of it and keep going strong. Everyone there has been so good to work with and extra knowledgeable!
