Integrated performance therapy in Stamford, CT, for pain, injury and post-op rehab.
Out of pain, and stronger than before.
One clinician evaluates structure, tissue, the nervous system and recovery in one session, treats what is driving the pain, and hands the plan into training.
For adults, athletes, pre-op and post-op, and the cases other places sent home.
Integrated performance therapy: therapy, strength and mental performance from the same people, on the same floor.
What brought you here?
Pain, an injury, a surgery, or a symptom nobody has explained. Pick the one closest to you.

What ATP looks at when something hurts.
Pain starts the evaluation. Structure, tissue, the nervous system and recovery decide where it goes.
Same problem.
Different limitation.
Four people say “my back hurts.”

How therapy works here.
Evaluate, decide, act, retest. Adapt feeds back into Evaluate.
Evaluation includes visual and vestibular screening when your history points there.
Manual therapy, dry needling and graded loading are tools. The working diagnosis chooses which, and when.
Acupuncture, for pain, sleep and recovery, and functional neurology, for symptoms that live in the nervous system, are part of the plan where the evaluation points there. Concussion symptoms that never cleared are the clearest case.
Therapy hands off into training in the same building, with the same notes and the same people.
We measure what matters.
Two tools ATP uses in a therapy evaluation, and what each one tells us.
VNG / VOGEye movement, gaze stability and vestibular function Decides Whether visual or vestibular function is influencing balance, coordination, symptoms, or movement organization.
Movement assessmentMovement patterns, restrictions and compensation Decides Whether a painful region is the source or the site that keeps paying for a restriction elsewhere.
Pain, surgery, and what came after.
Published ATP results, including a world champion who was told she had a herniated disc.
Told she had a herniated disc. Six years of daily back pain, gone. The limiter was neurological.
“As a high level athlete, I was faced with many physical pains and limitations. I felt so fearful of the unknowns and the path forward. I was dealing with severe lower back pain and was told I had a herniated disc. After working with ATP, my lower back pain is…” Read more

Constant arm discomfort to healthy baseball, with therapy, training and mental performance in one place.
“Prior to starting I would have constant arm discomfort and lingering issues that I felt would never resolve. Not only is it a facility where you get the absolute best training and guidance from Brian and the rest of the staff, but there are numerous resources…” Read more

Seven years of one-on-one integrated therapy after three surgeries. Still competing in college.
“I came to ATP after getting surgery my freshman year of high school, looking to get the right rehab and training programs to keep me healthy. Between the training and treatment from Taylor and the staff, I've become a stronger, healthier, and smarter athlete.”

Questions people ask before they book.
Short answers. If yours is not here, talk with ATP and we will give you a straight one.
That history helps us. If treatment to the painful area helped temporarily and symptoms kept returning, ATP would want to evaluate what keeps recreating the problem: movement, capacity, sensorimotor factors, load, recovery, or something else.
Yes. Pre-operatively we focus on preparation and keeping as much capacity as possible. Post-operatively we integrate rehabilitation with the return to real physical performance, and we coordinate with your surgeon and medical team.
Yes. Persistent concussion symptoms, visual and vestibular issues, balance and coordination problems, and pain with sensorimotor contributors are cases we evaluate specifically, including VNG/VOG testing where relevant.
ATP is an out-of-network provider. You pay ATP for your care, and as a courtesy we submit the claim to your primary insurance for you. Your insurer reviews it under your policy and reimburses you directly. Many clients receive partial or full reimbursement, and most college athletes injured in-season are covered fully through their school's secondary insurance. We can verify your benefits before you book.
Yes. A large part of our therapy work is adults who want to lift, golf, run, work, and play with their kids without a recurring problem deciding what they can do.
Pain is where we start. It is never the whole answer.
Tell us what hurts and what you want back. We will show you where ATP would begin.
