Physical Therapy In Orem
Physical Therapy That Starts With Actually Listening
Real answers start with real questions — and we take the time to ask them.
At Elevate, we don’t treat symptoms. We find what’s causing them. That means a real evaluation, a real diagnosis, and a treatment plan built around your specific body and your specific goals.
Not a protocol pulled from a shelf. Not the same exercises everyone else gets. Just answers — and a clear path to getting better.
Why Choose Elevate Fitness and Rehab?
Free Gym Membership
Every PT patient at Elevate receives a complimentary gym membership for the duration of their treatment. We believe the best outcomes come from patients who take ownership of their recovery. For some patients that means structured exercise. For others it simply means having a safe place to move, stretch, and stay active while they heal. Either way the space is yours.
Free 15-Minute Consult
Not sure if physical therapy is right for you? Book a free 15-minute consultation with one of our physical therapists. No commitment. No pressure. Just an honest conversation about what your body needs and whether PT is the right place to start.
Insurance
We accept most major insurance plans. Understanding your benefits before your first visit helps avoid surprises — and while we'll always do our best to help, your insurance provider is the best place to start. Questions? Call us at (801) 221-9060.
PHYSICAL THERAPY SERVICES WE OFFER:
Corrective Exercises
Most chronic pain isn't caused by what you're doing — it's caused by how you're doing it. Corrective exercise identifies and fixes the movement patterns that create pain, compensate for weakness, and lead to injury over time. Done right, it resolves problems that most people assume they'll just have to manage forever.
Pain Management
Pain has a source. Our job is to find it and treat it — not just reduce it temporarily. We use targeted modalities including electrical stimulation, ultrasound, infrared light therapy, and compression therapy to address pain at its root. We also give you tools to manage it independently between sessions so you're not dependent on us for relief.
Sports Medicine
Whether you're a competitive athlete or someone who stays active and wants to keep it that way, our team is trained to identify the movement faults and imbalances that lead to injury before they become one. We offer comprehensive running assessments including video analysis of running form and targeted corrective techniques.
Manual Therapy
Decreased mobility in specific areas is one of the most common and most overlooked causes of pain. Our manual therapy techniques range from gentle stretching and joint mobilization to instrument-assisted and hands-on myofascial release — all aimed at restoring the mobility your body needs to move without compensation.
Post-Surgery Care
Knowing what to do after surgery — and when to do it — makes all the difference in how fully you recover. Our physical therapists work in close collaboration with referring surgeons to build individualized recovery plans around your specific procedure, your surgeon's protocol, and your personal goals — moving you from the early stages of healing to full function safely and on the right timeline. We take the guesswork out of what comes next.
STRENGTHENING AS YOU AGE
Staying strong as you get older isn't optional — it's the difference between living the life you want and working around the one you have. We focus on the strength, balance, coordination, and range of motion that keep you doing what matters to you. Movement is medicine at every age and we'll meet you exactly where you are.
PELVIC FLOOR & WOMEN’S HEALTH
Our pelvic floor physical therapy addresses a range of women's health concerns — pelvic pain, incontinence, pregnancy-related issues, and postpartum recovery — with compassionate, evidence-based care. Dr. Kate LaRochelle leads this program and treats each patient with the specificity and privacy the work requires.
DRY NEEDLING
Trigger point dry needling is one of the most effective tools available for stubborn muscle tension and pain that doesn't respond to other treatment. By inserting thin sterile needles directly into trigger points — tight knots within muscles — we release tension, restore blood flow, and accelerate the healing process. Most patients notice a meaningful difference within one to three sessions.
PT For Metabolic Health
Conditions like diabetes and insulin resistance affect more than blood sugar — they affect muscle, strength, and movement. Our physical therapists are specifically trained to help patients with metabolic conditions build strength safely and effectively, working alongside our nutrition team when appropriate.
About Our Physical Therapy Approach
At Elevate Physical Therapy Orem, we are dedicated to helping you regain full function and improve your quality of life by treating the root causes of pain and functional limitations. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or simply looking to enhance your physical health, we are here to guide you on your journey to better movement and well-being.
How do we work?
We find the source — not just the symptom
Your first visit is a full evaluation. We identify what’s actually causing your pain — not just where it hurts — and build a treatment plan around that specific finding. You’ll leave your first visit with a clear diagnosis, a realistic timeline, and a plan that’s yours.
Your team talks to each other
At Elevate, your physical therapist works in the same building as our chiropractor, massage therapists, nutritionist coaches, and personal trainers. That’s not an accident. When the people treating you communicate and coordinate, your recovery is faster and more complete than anything a single-service clinic can offer
You'll always know where you stand
We adjust your treatment every session based on where you are in your recovery — because what you needed in week one isn’t what you need in week four. We keep you informed, we keep you moving forward, and we’ll tell you honestly when you’re ready to do it on your own.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect during my first visit?
We'll evaluate your symptoms, identify the root cause, give you a realistic healing timeline, and build an individualized treatment plan on the spot. You won't leave your first visit without a clear picture of what's going on and what we're going to do about it.
What can I expect during follow-up visits?
At Elevate, every visit is hands-on and purposeful. We adjust your treatment each session based on where you are in your recovery — because what you needed in week one isn't what you need in week four. You'll receive one-on-one care every visit, with techniques and exercises that are always one step ahead of what you can manage on your own.
Will my insurance plan cover my physical therapy treatments?
We accept most major insurance plans. Understanding your benefits before your first visit helps avoid surprises — and while we'll always do our best to help, your insurance provider is the best place to start. Questions? Call us at (801) 221-9060.
Do I need a referral to see a physical therapist?
Utah is a direct access state — meaning you can see a physical therapist without a physician referral. You can book directly and we'll handle the rest.
Do you have products you recommend for use at home?
They are ways for you to help relieve your pain at home in between PT visits. You can find our recommendations here.
