We’re excited to announce that Dr. Jake (.jacob.dpt) will be at hosting a Meet the Doc event where he’ll be providing injury screens and recovery sessions!

Do you have any nagging pains or injuries that you haven’t been able to figure out? Or some questions about training or rehab? Or maybe you just want to try cupping or dry needling? This is the perfect opportunity for all of that.

Each session will be about 20 minutes. We encourage signing up in advance to secure your spot. If there are any open slots, we will accept walk-ups on a first come, first serve basis.

These sessions are free of charge, but we use these events as an opportunity to raise money for local charities and organizations. Any money raised from this event will be donated to Core City CrossFit Kids in Detroit.

To sign up, head to the link in our bio OR you can scan the QR code on one of the flyers that will be posted around the gym.

Let us know if you have any questions and we look forward to seeing you!

Have you been told to rest or ice your injuries, and it never really got better?

It’s probably because you weren’t giving it what it needed!

Many tissues throughout our body respond to loading. When we have tissue breakdown and/or pain, it’s often due to inappropriate loading (think along the lines of “too much too soon”) or poor recovery.

The last thing we want to do, though, is remove loading from the equation. What needs to happen is actually just a more dialed-in approach to loading the affected structure(s).

Give this a read to find out why LOAD is the answer, and why the advice of “R.I.C.E.” Needs to be put out to pasture.

Every October we celebrate .

We take this chance not only to recognize the PTs and PTAs helping people get out of pain and keeping their community moving, but also to preach the benefits of choosing physical therapy over other strategies like pain medication or surgery.

When you find and see a quality physical therapist, he/she can help you:
- Stay in your gym/sport/activity while working to get rid of your pain
- Find strength and mobility deficits that could be causing your pain or increasing risk of injury
- Find the root cause of your pain to eliminate your pain completely and keep it away
- Show you what to do to reduce the chance of your pain coming back in the future

Here at MRP, we firmly believe we put together one of the best teams in the area. If you’re looking for someone to start working with, or even on the fence if PT is right for you, we hope we get the chance to work with you.

Happy Physical Therapy Month!

We’re going to be back alongside this weekend for Motor City Monsters 2025!

Really looking forward to enjoying the nice fall weather and watching some crazy strong humans do what they do best. We will be on-site providing any prep or recovery services these athletes need (or any spectators!).

Can’t wait to see everybody there!

This patient is a 17 year old male lacrosse player who had ACL reconstruction with quad tendon graft back in May 2025. He came to us at 14 weeks post-op after attending physical therapy at a different facility and not getting the attention, intensity, or results he needed and deserved.

Like with a lot of ACL patients, in these early weeks our focus has been primarily beefing up his quad, but also addressing bilateral hamstring deficits for his long term knee health.

He’s only been coming in twice per week, and he’s been religious with his home exercise program. We’ve used minimal manual therapy. His exercise list isn’t 15 things long and he hasn’t had to come in 3x/week since surgery to get these results.

Just strategic, targeted, and dialed-in loading strategies and programming.
