Barbell Athletes

Powerlifter’s put a tremendous amount of strain on their body and usually come into the clinic a lot stronger than the majority of patients. This means they require a different approach than general strengthening that you come accross in many clinics. Seeking out a physical therapist can be intimidating because you want to work with someone that understands the demands of your sport. 3DPT has multiple Barbell-Rehab certified coaches that are ready to address injuries in a way that keeps you as active as possible in the gym, and on track for an upcoming competition. In a sport where you only compete a few times a year, you want to work with someone who is up to date in their approach so you don’t have to sit out your next meet!
