Every human should move well and move often.

Our mission is to help as many people do that as possible. At Movement As Medicine, we vision ourselves as “Movement Therapists.”

We pride ourselves on treating the person, not just treating the pain. No human body is exactly the same, and for that reason, no painful condition should be treated exactly the same. We take a unique, personalized approach to each individual who walks through our door. Life should be lived in motion. We’re here to help you move more, move better, and keep doing the things you love to do. At Movement As Medicine we have multiple therapy options depending on your specific treatment goals. Read below to find the right therapy option for you. Orthopedic Massage and Movement Therapy

Orthopedic Massage and Movement Therapy is intended for clients looking to resolve a specific issue including but not limited to chronic pain/discomfort, acute injury, postural dysfunction and immobility. Our Movement Therapy sessions often resemble physical therapy more than traditional massage therapy. Every session begins with a comprehensive assessment followed by hands-on treatment as well as corrective exercise and movement re-education. We incorporate exercise and movement training into our treatments because we believe in not only resolving your pain but also re-patterning your body to move correctly to prevent future dysfunction.

Traditional Full-Body Relaxation and Recovery Treatment

Our Full-Body Relaxation and Recovery treatments are a great option for clients who are looking to reduce overall tension and stress, prepare for a competition, recover from competition or just loosen up a bit. Our full-body treatment is what most people would picture as a typical massage therapy session. Each session begins with a short assessment to determine focus areas that help us tailor the treatment to your needs. We provide a quiet relaxing atmosphere to accompany a full-body massage that incorporates traditional Swedish techniques as well as Myofascial release and stretching.

While we may often start on the table with manual therapy, our main goal in any rehab process is to build capacity and confidence in movement.

When clients have positive experiences with progressive loading, we don’t just rebuild physical capacity we also develop confidence, improve self-efficacy, and motivate long-term self-care.

By focusing on total-body physical development, we don’t just fix the problem area, we help clients move, feel, and perform better everywhere. Turning rehab into training, and training into lasting behavior change.

The saying goes, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”

That seems to hold true when it comes to our health.
We often think of exercise as a solo pursuit. Something that depends on willpower, discipline, and self-motivation.

But research shows the social and group dynamics of exercise can have a powerful impact on both our consistency and our long-term health.

The effect of social facilitation means we tend to work harder when we’re surrounded by others. And the cohesion of a group gives us belonging, accountability, and a reason to keep showing up.

Over time, that shared environment shapes behavior and builds habits that last.

Beyond consistency, social connection itself is a major determinant of healthspan and lifespan.

People with strong social ties live longer, healthier lives than those who are isolated, and group exercise naturally provides that connection.

That’s why group training is more than just a workout. It’s movement, motivation, and community all in one.

👉 If you’re ready to move better, feel better, and be part of a community that keeps you consistent, join our Group Adult Functional Program at .

Come train with us and go further, together. 💪🏽

As we age, mobility loss doesn’t just “happen”, it’s the result of a gradual decline in joint, muscle, and connective tissue health that’s often amplified by moving less.

👎 Less movement → more stiffness, weakness, and discomfort

👍 More movement → less stiffness, stronger, more resilient tissues and better long-term function

Here’s how aging impacts your mobility and what you can do to slow it down.

➡️ Swipe through to learn about:

• How connective tissue, joints, and muscle activity change with age
• Why reduced movement accelerates the decline
• The key interventions that can preserve mobility for life

The good news: you can fight back against mobility loss with a consistent movement practice.

Move daily and start training intentionally.

If you’re ready to improve your mobility, strength, and overall health.

A well-designed warm-up isn’t just a box to check—it’s a powerful tool to prime your body and brain for the work ahead.

✅ Raise your heart rate and body temperature
✅ Activate your nervous system
✅ Rehearse key movement patterns
✅ Build general movement skills

Whether you’re training for strength, speed, or general fitness, a 5–10 minute warm-up helps you move better, feel better, and lower your risk of injury.

It also gives coaches and clients a moment to assess how the body is feeling that day and adjust the session accordingly.

Don’t skip it—make it part of the plan.

Leftover ACL Rehab: Don’t Let Old Injuries Hold You Back

It’s common to see athletes who’ve had a major injury, like an ACL tear, and never fully regained their full capacity after rehab. Years later, as they enter adulthood, that missing strength and mobility starts to show up—often when they’re trying to stay active in everyday life or during recreational activities.

That’s why it’s so important to keep a thread of performance training in your routine, even after your competitive days are behind you. For those still aiming to stay active, maintaining a focus on performance is key.

In sessions like this we often utilize manual therapy and then move out to the weight room to begin rebuilding capacity. Having the strength and agility to hop, bound, and move confidently on one leg is foundational to staying athletic and injury-free as we age!
