Mike Kohm
Mike Kohm knows that a whole body approach to resolving an injury gets the best results. Having been a clinical instructor for PT students for years, he is also up on the latest evaluation and treatment techniques in Physical Therapy. Mike considers your unique qualities before choosing a treatment approach. "To help resolve your injury, I treat you - the whole person - and not just the pain," says Mike. "I have enjoyed sporting activities such as lacrosse, hockey, rock climbing and mountain biking, which has helped me better understand athletic injuries."
Mike has taken numerous continuing education courses focusing on: back care and treatment, core and stabilization training, custom orthotic evaluation, headache evaluation and treatment, hand therapy and trigger point dry needling.

"As I rehabilitated my own back injury, I came to fully appreciate how much quality of life is compromised by a physical injury. Along with physical therapy, I turned to Yoga, and eventually became a certified Yoga instructor. It was a combination of the right movement and exercise with manual therapy that allowed me to fully recover. I want that same success for all my patients."
