About Good Reps Physical Therapy
About Good Reps
At Good Reps, we believe that everyone deserves to move well, feel strong, and recover fully — regardless of their fitness background. Our name comes from the barbell world, where a "No Rep" means a movement didn’t count. We took that idea and flipped it: we’re here to help people build Good Reps — not just in the gym, but in everyday life.
Our practice serves a diverse patient population, ranging from competitive athletes to active adults seeking long-term wellness. We prioritize individualized care, movement, and collaborative rehabilitation to support people through injury and beyond.
Our Clinical Approach
Good Reps is a one-on-one outpatient orthopedic and performance-focused physical therapy clinic rooted in movement science, patient education, and community engagement. We strive to:
• Develop treatment plans that align with patient goals and lifestyles
• Identify and address underlying root causes that have led to pain and injury
• Support active recovery with a focus on long-term outcomes
• Foster a welcoming, inclusive clinical environment
