Ironside’s Three Step Process
-
Oftentimes, pain and injuries come from multiple areas of the body and frequently come from compensating. During the evaluation and initial visits, we will discover the root cause of your pain or limitations and address them together
-
"No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable." - Socrates
I have loved this quote from Socrates and 100% believe it and integrate it with my clients. Once we discover where our weak points are, we will work on them together to build a more stable foundation to build upon as we progress in the gym
-
This is the best part of the process: Performing to the best of your abilities, with no restrictions holding you back. This is the end game and our goal throughout treatment. It is established in the initial visit and guides our treatment throughout the plan of care

Our Services
-
Soft tissue mobilization, including Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM), helps break up restrictions in muscles, fascia, and connective tissue to improve movement and reduce pain. By applying targeted pressure—whether through hands-on techniques or specialized tools—this approach increases blood flow, decreases stiffness, and promotes tissue healing. It’s an effective way to enhance mobility, speed up recovery, and optimize performance for athletes and active individuals.
-
Dry needling is a powerful technique that helps speed up recovery by targeting trigger points and muscle tightness. By inserting thin, sterile needles into tense or overactive muscles, it stimulates blood flow, reduces inflammation, and releases built-up tension. This process helps decrease pain, improve mobility, and restore normal muscle function, making it an effective tool for athletes and active individuals looking to recover faster and move better.
-
Exercises designed to help you achieve your goals. No BS, generic exercises that under-load you.
We will focus on form, increasing load, and getting you back to your sport or activity of choice.

Reviews from our Amazing Clients

I was struggling with pain because of plantar fasciitis. I’ve already had surgery on my other foot due to this and decided to be proactive with PT this time in the hopes of avoiding it getting worse and requiring surgery. Garrett is wonderful - he knows his stuff and is particularly good at talking about body mechanics in a way that just makes sense & helps me start to tune into my body more fully as I’m working out. I finished my last session today and my pain is almost negligible at this point. I cannot recommend Ironside Physical Therapy enough!

Great experience working with Garrett to resolve a muscular issue in my right leg. Dry needling and muscle scraping gave me back a lot of range of motion I had lost and cleared up sciatic pain I was having. Would definitely go back for any future issues.

Garrett has been instrumental in my recovery from several injuries. Unburdened by the limitations I’ve experienced with other PT clinics, he uses a myriad of techniques such as scraping, dry needing, e-stim, and physical manipulation to bring quick relief. Garrett is friendly, approachable, and beyond thorough, taking plenty of time to educate, teach and train patients in proper body mechanics and preventative measures. His familiarity with various sports and workouts helps me maintain my intense workout schedule with few interruptions and or modifications. The personally recorded PT videos help me stay on track at home, and his flexible schedule, billing options and multiple locations allow me to access physical therapy at times that work with my busy schedule. Full disclosure too for those wondering if this is an impartial review; although we share the same last name, there is no relation. I highly recommend Garrett at Ironside Physical Therapy!

Garrett has helped me so much throughout my entire marathon training block! I’ve dealt with IT band issues in 2 prior marathons and haven’t dealt with any pain at all this go round thanks to him🙏🏻 muscle scraping is a new thing to me but wowza its become a huge recovery tool that im glad he introduced me to! This week I had so much hip and quad pain in my legs that I had to walk down the stairs backwards. After a session with him I was able to walk down like a normal human again! He’s so personable; and he really cares about your well-being and goals. I would HUGE-LY recommend Ironside to anyone!
