A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO ACL REHAB
Evidence-based rehab designed to get you back to training, competing, and performing at your highest level.
REHAB BUILT AROUND YOU
No two athletes move through ACL rehab exactly the same way. Your plan should reflect your recovery, your goals, and the demands you’re working to get back to.
Individualized treatment throughout your recovery
Progressions based on how you’re responding
A plan built around your sport and goals
Clear expectations for what you’re working toward next
BUILD TOWARD YOUR SPORT
The goal goes beyond getting your knee healthy. We prepare you for the strength, power, speed and movement demands you need to perform again.
Restore knee motion and rebuild quad strength
Build strength throughout the lower body
Progress into jumping, landing and absorbing force
Reintroduce running, speed and change of direction
Prepare for the demands of your sport
TEST. TRACK. PROGRESS.
We use objective testing throughout ACL rehab to understand how you’re progressing and help guide what comes next.
Progress isn’t based on the calendar alone. We look at how your knee is actually responding throughout rehab.
Track range of motion and strength
Measure quad and hamstring strength
Use force plate testing as rehab progresses
Compare results throughout your recovery
Use objective data to help guide your next steps
Your Evaluation + Plan
Comprehensive Evaluation
We assess injury history, movement patterns, and sport-specific demands.
Clear Plan & Expectations
You’ll know what we’re working on, why it matters, and how progress will be measured.
Guided Progression
Your program evolves as you improve – strength, mobility, and control are built intentionally.
Return-to-Sport Readiness
We focus on preparing you to train, compete, and move with confidence.
I am currently 3 months post op from ACL reconstruction surgery and was looking to take my rehab journey to the next level. Each test that was conducted on me was done with immense precision and clear explanations. My PT, Jared, maintained a high level of professionalism, was well-versed in the mechanics that I’ll need to perform as I return to sport, and a deep understanding of the gravity of my situation while knowing what it take to recover properly. Any athlete that is looking to elevate their performance, safely accelerate their recovery, and be surrounded by a motiving and supportive environment will find exactly that at Petroski Physio.

The team at Petroski Physio is so knowledgeable and informative with great communication. The facility is such a great environment for athletes to train and do therapy. They worked with my son for about two months and continued to work with him as he got himself back on the field. We had tried other programs and unfortunately my son’s injury would gradually come back. So happy we found Nick and his team at Petroski Physio. Couldn’t recommend them enough.
David
I am a collegiate basketball player who is going overseas for basketball and I just want to say how this place completely changed the way I run and jump. Going through patella tendon rehab mentally it was a challenge but thanks to petroski I’m able to run and jump and have confidence in my leg like never before. They definitely challenge you everyday with the workouts, and they make sure you have the best recovery after workouts as well. This is the place to go for the best results for PT in my opinion.
Tairi
After tearing my ACL and meniscus playing soccer my junior year of college, my teammate, who was also a patient, told me she wasn’t going to let me do PT anywhere else. I’m so grateful I listened to her because this place truly gave me the best rehab experience I could have asked for. They turned such a difficult, overwhelming time, especially after needing two separate surgeries, into something positive. The level of detail and attention Taylor and Jared put into my rehab to make sure I could get back on the field for my senior season is what I appreciate most. The staff is not only incredibly skilled at what they do, but they’ve created the most uplifting, supportive environment filled with genuinely kind people. They made PT something I looked forward to, instead of dreading. I can’t recommend them enough! If you need physical therapy, this is the place you want to be!!

From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed and cared for. The staff is not only incredibly knowledgeable and professional, but also genuinely kind and attentive. They take the time to understand your goals, explain the treatment plan thoroughly, and adjust as needed to make sure you’re progressing safely and effectively. I mainly worked with both Jared and Pat. They are truly outstanding therapists. They took the time to listen to my concerns, clearly explained my treatment plan, and tailored every session to help me meet my recovery goals. Their knowledge, encouragement, and hands-on approach made a huge difference in my progress. I always felt motivated and supported, even on the tough days. The facility is clean, modern, and well-equipped, which adds to the overall sense of comfort and trust. What truly sets this place apart is the personalized attention — I never felt like “just another patient.” Every session was focused, encouraging, and tailored to my needs. Thanks to their expert care, I’ve made incredible progress in my recovery and feel stronger, more mobile, and more confident than I have in months. If you’re looking for a place that truly prioritizes your health and healing, look no further. Highly recommend! It’s not just another PT spot. It’s Petroski Physio #RehabDifferent

Petroski physio has been a tremendous asset in my son’s ACL recovery. Jared and the rest of the team at Petroski truly care about complete recovery for the injured athlete. They lay the groundwork from day one in prehab, making recovery that much easier during the rehab process. 299 days later my son was back on the field, and I cannot thank Petroski enough.
Jen
Knowledgeable, personable, committed and communicative. I love Petro. I literally drive a hr twice a week so my son can complete his PT and I’ll continue to do because of the level of care and consideration that they give to my boy. 5 star business and 5 star people. I love Petro
