At HIDEF PT, We Do Things Differently (In a Good Way)
I know, I know. Everyone says that. But here’s the thing: we mean it.
First off, we’re one of the only multi-site in-gym clinics in the Pacific Northwest. Think about that for a second—most places have a therapy room, some bands, maybe a few dumbbells. We’ve got that and a full-blown gym.
What Does That Mean for You?
It means the rehab possibilities are endless. We’re not just working with a small set of tools; we’ve got an entire gym at our fingertips. If you need equipment to build strength, regain mobility, or crush that next milestone, it’s all there.
Every Session is Tailored—But Here’s the Framework
Even though every treatment plan is personalized, there’s a flow to the magic.
1. Manual Therapy (The Fan Favorite)
We usually start here. Whether you need to increase your range of motion, ease some pain, or just want to feel better before we dive into the hard stuff, manual therapy’s where we get hands-on.
Most people love this part and it's their favorite at first... until they learn about the pain relieving benefits of the right exercise plan.
Sometimes we even end a session with it, so you walk out feeling like a million bucks.
2. The Warm-Up
Next, we warm up. You might hop on a bike, take a stroll on the treadmill, or pull a sled—whatever gets your body primed. The goal is to wake up the nervous system and get ready for the real work.
3. Agility, Plyometrics, Balance, and Stability
Now that your body’s primed, it’s time to dial things up. We hit agility drills, plyometrics (yep, we’re talking jumps), balance exercises, and stability work. And here’s the kicker: we do it before you’re fatigued, so you’re firing on all cylinders and moving with proper form.
4. Functional Movement Training (The Meat and Potatoes)
This is where the heavy lifting happens—literally. Whether you’re squatting (even if it’s a sit-to-stand from a chair), deadlifting, pressing, or doing pull-ups, we focus on movements that matter in real life.
This phase is key. Mastering these movements leads to big, fast gains in strength and mobility.
5. Metabolic Conditioning (For the Finish)
If you’re active and aiming for peak health, we’ll throw in endurance work, metabolic conditioning, or finishers to round it out. This phase helps your cardiovascular system work like a well-oiled machine, speeding up recovery and keeping you in top form.
Bottom Line
We’ve designed each session to cover all the bases—whether you’re rehabbing an injury or just want to keep moving at your best. From the hands-on work to the heavy lifting and metabolic finishers, we’re here to get you back to full strength (and then some).
