PHYSICAL THERAPY
High Peaks was the first physical therapy clinic in Teton Valley and since then our therapists have garnered a wide variety of skills to treat patients.

+ Concussion Services
From initial pre-season baseline testing to concussion treatment and rehabilitation, we collaborate with primary care providers to co-manage concussions, helping patients and athletes safely return to learn, work and play.
+ Dry Needling
Dry needling is a therapeutic modality that involves the use of monofilament needles to penetrate the skin and soft tissue. The technique results in a small lesion with an end goal of normalizing tissue tension, local inflammation, and restoration of native tissue.
+ Manual therapy
The most fundamental skill in a physical therapist's arsenal is the ability to use their hands to manipulate muscles and joints. This treatment not only assists flexibility and healing, but allows the therapist to feel the damaged tissues and identify precisely the correct course of treatment. Manual therapy reduces inflammation, increases range of motion, and improves joint and muscle function.
+ Therapeutic Exercise & Gym
Thanks to our unique facility, High Peaks has a larger than normal capacity to facilitate patient exercise. Therapeutic exercise is led by our physical therapists to guide the healing process, prevent injury, increase range of motion, strength and balance. The benefits of exercise are innumerable, and injury can often disrupt regular exercise routines. Our patients are provided free access to our gym throughout their rehabilitation and for one month following discharge. Our PTs will provide unique instruction and exercise routines for each patient. *Non-patients are required to have a consulation with a physical therapist prior to purchase of a membership.
+ Gait Training
A large host of injuries will require gait training for rehabilitation as it strengthens muscles, improves balance and endurance, corrects posture, and prevents falls. Loaner walkers and crutches are available to patients.
+ Modalities
Electrical stimulation, iontophoresis, ultrasound, and other modalities that expedite the healing process.
+ Kinesiotape
Our therapists are trained in the techniques of applying kinesiotape - a latex-free tape that facilitates healing and is wearable for days. The tape naturally constricts to lift and support joints and muscles and assist with blood flow. Plus, it comes in flashy colors.
+ Women's Health
Our therapists can address pre- and post-natal fitness, back pain, SI joint pain, pelvic floor pain or weakness, bladder pain, and pain caused by endomitriosis. Biofeedback and behavioral management are also utilized to address incontinence.
+ Functional Activities
A vital part of the physical therapy process is ensuring that patients can get back to their daily lives. That's where functional activities come in. Our therapists guide patients in activities that will assist with their lifestyle.
+ Orthotics
The human body is like an amazing piece of architecture. And, like architecture, problems higher up usually have something to do with parts lower down. Othotics are special foot-beds designed to contour to and provide support for our feet. The support provided by orthotics can relieve knee, hip, back, and even neck pain. By providing arch support, the foot-beds help ensure that weight is properly distributed in the feet, which aligns other joints to make sure they line up to support the rest of a patient's body.
