Orthopedic Physical Therapy
If you've tried physical therapy before and your pain keeps coming back, it's often because something deeper wasn't addressed.
We don't just ask where it hurts. We ask what's driving it.
Orthopedic Physical Therapy, Reframed
Orthopedic physical therapy traditionally focuses on muscles, joints, and movement patterns. At PeakRx, we take this a step further by recognizing that the pelvic floor and deep core system are central to how the body moves, stabilizes, and manages load.
When these systems are underperforming, overactive, or poorly coordinated, pain often shows up in familiar places:
This is why some people "do all the right exercises" and still don't improve.
Our orthopedic care is informed by pelvic health principles, allowing us to address the missing link in many unresolved pain patterns.
When Orthopedic PT at PeakRx Is a Good Fit
You may benefit from our approach if:
- You've tried traditional PT and symptoms returned
- Your pain feels tied to your core, pelvis, or stability
- Back or hip pain flares with lifting, running, or prolonged sitting
- You feel weak, braced, or disconnected through your midsection
- Pain began during or after pregnancy, postpartum, or menopause
- Imaging doesn't fully explain your symptoms
- You're told "everything looks normal," but it doesn't feel that way
These are often signs that core and pelvic floor function need to be part of the solution.
Conditions We Treat Particularly Well
While we treat a wide range of orthopedic conditions, we are especially skilled in addressing:
Low back pain
That doesn't resolve with standard care
Hip pain
Or instability
Pelvic girdle pain
And SI joint issues
Shifting pain
That feels inconsistent
Core-related pain
Movement dysfunction
Pregnancy pain
Or postpartum recovery
Recurring injuries
Despite strength training
Orthopedic + pelvic
Combined symptoms
Our lens allows us to see connections others may miss.
What Makes Our Orthopedic Care Different
Every evaluation at PeakRx includes an understanding of how your pelvic floor, breathing, and deep core muscles interact with your movement and strength.
Your care may include:
- Comprehensive movement and load assessment
- Evaluation of breathing and pressure management
- Core and pelvic stability assessment (internal exam only if appropriate and relevant)
- Education on how your body generates and transfers force
- Strength and mobility work that supports, rather than overrides, your system
This is not pelvic floor therapy disguised as orthopedic care.
It is orthopedic care informed by pelvic health expertise.
Back, Hip, and Pelvic Pain Require More
Back and hip pain are rarely isolated problems. They often reflect:
Poor pressure management
Compensation for core instability
Pelvic floor overactivity or weakness
Guarding patterns driven by pain or stress
Movement strategies developed over time
Because our therapists are trained in pelvic health, we are able to treat these conditions with greater nuance, particularly when pain has been persistent or confusing.
Orthopedic PT for Active Women
They lift. They run. They train.
But something still doesn't feel right.
Our approach helps women:
This is where pelvic health and orthopedic care naturally overlap — and where PeakRx excels.
Orthopedic PT After Pregnancy or Life Changes
Pregnancy, childbirth, and major life transitions can permanently change how the body manages load, pressure, and movement.
Even years later, unresolved changes can contribute to:
Back pain
Hip pain
Feeling unstable or weak
Difficulty returning to exercise
Our background in pelvic health allows us to recognize and address these patterns within an orthopedic framework.
