3 STEPS TO BETTER MOVEMENT

Investigate

INVESTIGATE

Determine the
 root cause.

Where your pain or discomfort shows up, may only be a symptom and not the root cause. Finding the root cause allows us to build a treatment plan tailored to help your overall health and not just your symptoms.

Allieviate

ALLEVIATE

Create custom
 treatment plan.
Once we know the root cause, we’ll create a custom plan to reduce your symptoms using hands-on manual therapy, individualized home exercise programs, and additional advanced techniques. You’ll feel better faster — giving you the motivation needed to continue moving.
Cultivate

CULTIVATE

Provide prevention and
 self-management tools.

After we treat the initial cause, you’ll learn how to prevent and reduce injury recurrence and what you can do to treat it on your own. By giving you the skills to manage your current and future injuries, we hope to create a movement habit you’ll continue.

I am so glad I found Proactive Kinetics. Dr. Sam is compassionate and listens to all my concerns. She has provided with me with many techniques to improve pain and weakness. If you need PT you can't go wrong with Dr. Sam!

My wife and I have been going to Proactive Kinetics for right at a year. From my back and neck injuries, my wife's arm/shoulder issues, to new areas of my 47 year old body, we are both gaining flexibility and use with the help of Dr. Elrod. She has been a driving force in quicker and more thorough recovery from injury. Dr. Elrod is amazing in her ability to adapt the plan to new areas of concern. Started with actual injuries and now working on flexibility and more efficient workouts. She has been a godsend.

I came to Dr. Elrod with persistent back pain and it was making weightlfiting incredibly painful and difficult. From assessement to treatment to now having graduated from PT, She was incredibly kind and explained everything to me and why I was doing it. I am now back to lifting heavy without pain, have exercises that keep my core and back strong, and feel great! Go to Dr. Elrod if you are looking for a physical therapist who is invested in helping you reach your goals.

I started seeing Dr. Samantha in the middle of my pregnancy for back pain. Not only did she help make it bearable, she helped improve my back pain to very minimal. (Something I didn’t think was possible) Once released for physical activity, I continued to see Dr. Samantha for postpartum care. I can see such a difference in my abdominal and pelvic floor areas since having a baby. Her wonderful personality always made my visits fun. I truly can’t recommend her enough!!

Thank you for offering this. I have looked for a workshop like this or a coach for a while and this was invaluable. Wish I had this sooner in my running journey.
