What this looks like
For golfers, runners, lifters, BJJ practitioners, and weekend warriors who refuse to slow down. We map your kinetic chain, address the mechanical patterns that cause repeat injury, and accelerate recovery between training days using the RX2600 and a TPI-certified mobility framework.
Recover faster. Train harder. Eliminate the compensation patterns slowing you down.
Local context
Inside Lake Orion.
Lake Orion is centered around its lakefront, the historic Broadway and Flint Street commercial districts, and the M-24 corridor that connects active-adult populations from Pontiac in the south to Lapeer in the north. Lake Orion High School, Scripps Middle School, and the broader Lake Orion Community Schools system feed competitive multi-sport athletics. The Polly Ann Trail spur, Bald Mountain Recreation Area to the east, and the chain of inland lakes around Lake Orion and Orion Township support a strong recreational training community. Wildwood Amphitheater and the year-round downtown events (Dragon on the Lake, Lighted Boat Parade, Holly-Day Parade) make downtown a destination beyond the clinic itself.
Who we see from Lake Orion
Common cases.
Lake Orion patients are our most local case mix. Active adults, multi-sport youth and high-school athletes, golfers from area courses, runners on the Polly Ann Trail and around the lakefront, and chronic-pain patients who want clinical care at the same address they already pass on M-24 every day. Post-surgical recovery cases coordinating with surgeons in Lake Orion and Auburn Hills are also common. The advantage for Lake Orion residents is logistical: weekly visit cadence costs nothing in drive time, so treatment plans can run at the right frequency without having to compress everything into long sessions. What they come in for clusters around a handful of regions. Shoulder, back, and hip pain, plus the radiating arm and leg pain that active adults across Lake Orion and Orion Township bring in. In each one we work the root cause up or down the kinetic chain, not just the spot that hurts.
Modalities we use
The tools behind the work.
The RX2600 Therapeutic Robot
Sustained pressure, targeted heat, and controlled vibration that hands cannot replicate. The only RX2600 Therapeutic Robot in the region.
Read moreBlood Flow Restriction Training
Strength gains at lighter loads. Useful in post-surgical recovery and for joints that don’t tolerate heavy weight.
Read moreManual Therapy
Joint mobilization and myofascial work delivered one-on-one with your therapist. No aides, no handoffs.
Read moreDry Needling
Thin filament needles release deep trigger points and restore movement faster than manual work alone.
Read moreSoft Tissue Mobilization
Hands-on release of trigger points and tight tissue around the joint or chain you’re working on.
Read moreMuscle Scraping (IASTM / Graston)
Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization to release scar tissue and restricted fascia.
Read moreRecovery Session
Between-training-day recovery for active adults. Focused, fast, and built around what your training week actually demands.

The pain that brings you in.
Sports Injuries
Acute or chronic. We get you back to the field, court, or course faster than passive rehab will.
Read moreShoulder Pain
Shoulder pain that comes back after every fix usually starts at the thoracic spine, not the joint itself.
Read moreKnee Pain
Knees show up where hips and ankles fail. We assess the whole chain. Not just the joint that’s complaining.
Read moreHip Pain
Your hip might be reacting to what your ankle isn’t doing. We trace it back to find the actual source.
Read moreMuscle Tightness
If a muscle keeps tightening up, the cause is somewhere else. We find what your body is protecting.

Common questions
Questions worth asking.
Where exactly is the clinic in Lake Orion?
146 S Broadway St #160. We’re in the heart of downtown Lake Orion at the intersection of M-24 and the lakefront, with reserved client parking at the north end of the building.
Do you treat patients from Orion Township?
Yes. Most of Orion Township sits 5 to 15 minutes from the clinic, and a large share of our clients live in the township, from the lake communities on the east side to the M-24 corridor. We treat the full range active adults deal with: shoulder, back, and hip pain, plus radiating arm and leg pain. Every plan starts with the $99 Complete Kinetic Chain Assessment, and no referral is needed.
Do I need to be injured to come in?
No. Many of the highest-performing active adults we work with come in healthy. They want to identify weak links in their kinetic chain before those weak links become acute injuries. Movement screening and conditioning are equally part of what we do.
I’m a golfer. What does TPI Certified mean?
Our clinical lead is a Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Certified Mobility Specialist. TPI is the gold standard for golf-specific movement assessment. Used by tour-level coaches and physical therapists to identify the swing-limiting mobility deficits in a player’s body. We bring that framework to every golfer who comes through.
How quickly can I get back to training after an injury?
Faster than passive rehab gets you there, in most cases. The combination of the RX2600, BFR for joints that can’t take heavy load yet, and a kinetic chain plan that addresses what allowed the injury in the first place. That combination is materially faster than insurance-based protocols.
