BRIDGING THE GAP

While Physical Therapists are without a doubt essential in the sports community, many are not trained in sport-specific rehab or strength and conditioning. Both are vital components of rehabilitating an injured athlete or improving a healthy athlete’s performance. As former collegiate athletes, We understand this missing component first hand and make this transition seamless to ensure you are stronger, faster, and more resilient when competition begins.

We specialize in treating injured runners through detailed gait analysis and a comprehensive evaluation to uncover the true root cause of pain and dysfunction.

Our goal isn’t just to get you out of pain, it’s to keep you running.

By combining movement analysis with evidence-based strength and stability training, we help you build a more resilient, efficient stride so you can run longer, stronger, and with confidence.

Return to Sport Testing and Programming
The C2C Earned Return System™ is our end-phase rehabilitation and return-to-sport protocol designed to eliminate hidden deficits before athletes resume full competition.

Using advanced strength assessment technology, we precisely measure force output of key muscle groups — including the quadriceps, hamstrings, and glutes — to identify limb asymmetries and residual weakness that increase reinjury risk.

Research supports achieving less than an 8% limb asymmetry prior to return to sport. This level of precision cannot be accurately determined through manual muscle testing alone. It requires objective measurement tools capable of quantifying true force production.

Many athletes are cleared based on time from surgery or basic clinical testing. We clear based on demonstrated readiness.

At Coast to Coast Physical Therapy & Performance, return to sport isn’t assumed — it’s proven.

This includes but is not limited to:

  • ACL reconstruction
  • Achilles tendon repair
  • hip labral repair / periacetabular Osteotomy
  • ankle reconstruction/sprains/chronic instability
  • post op rotator cuff / labral repair
  • UCL injury / Tommy John Repair 
  • Patellar tendon injuries
  • Meniscus procedures
  • Cartilage restoration
  • Shoulder instability or labral repair
  • Stress fractures
  • Recurrent muscle strains

Because being cleared isn’t the same as being ready.

This includes but is not limited to:

  • post op ACL reconstruction
  • post op Achilles tendon repair
  • post op hip larbral repair / periacetabular Osteotomy
  • post op ankle reconstruction
  • post op rotator cuff / labral repair

  • “
    I came to Teresa fresh off my meniscus repair surgery, having lost a ton of muscle and feeling unsure about the direction of my rehab. From day one, Teresa brought clarity, structure, and purpose to my recovery. Her knowledge and guidance gave me a clear, calculated path that rebuilt not only my strength but also my confidence as I prepared to step into professional soccer. But what truly set Teresa apart wasn’t just her expertise, it was her patience, compassion, and mentorship. She connected the physical and mental sides of my healing in a way that made me feel grounded and capable. By bringing me back to the basics, she propelled me forward, ultimately helping me return as an even better athlete than before my injury. Working with Teresa at Coast to Coast Physical Therapy has undeniably put me in the best possible position to move into the next stage of my professional soccer career. I couldn’t recommend her more highly. Five stars isn’t enough.

  • “I came across Seans IG account through my gym sharing a PT video on their story. The video focused on movements targeting upper trap/neck pain. For the past few months I’ve had pain in my upper trap and neck which was triggered by movements like HSPU, split/push jerks, and DB thrusters. I scheduled a consult with Sean and we talked about areas I experience pain, pain level, mobility, and recommendations. It felt good knowing that majority of Seans clients are people to do CrossFit, so he was aware of common weak points and triggers for this specific area. I’ve never done PT before and I wasn’t sure how it would be to do PT virtually, but I decided to give it a try! We worked together for one month and within that month I’ve had minimal pain which was a significant difference before starting PT. Sean was available to answer any questions and scheduled weekly check in calls. I had a daily workouts for PT and Sean worked with me to create a schedule that worked with my workout routine. I highly recommended connecting with Sean to get started with PT!”

  • “Sean played a crucial role in getting me back to where I wanted to be. Sean constantly went above and beyond for me on a daily basis. He was one of the first physical therapist to reach out to my surgeons. Sean stayed in constant contact with my surgeons which helped create synergy, eased my mind, and helped me reach my goals faster. Sean continuously evaluated and tweaked my customized programs to ensure I was reaching all of my goals on time. His personality made the entire process enjoyable and knowledge of how and why we were doing each exercise made our entire time together an awesome experience. I have recommended Sean to numerous friends and family! I cannot recommend him to enough people!”

  • “After sustaining hip and back injuries, the probability of returning to the same form seemed very low. Thankfully, Sean was there every step of the way and was the difference in getting me to where I wanted to be. His personality and immense knowledge of how and why we were doing each exercise made our entire time together an awesome experience. As a D1 college golfer, he tailored each exercise and stretch specific to my needs in a personalized program greatly improving my mobility and performance. I couldn’t recommend him enough.”

  • I came to Dr. Coleman after struggling with a herniated disc for about 2.5 years. I had tried
    a lot of different therapies, including chiropractic adjustments, ART, massages, customized
    resistance training, you name it. But I could never seem to 100% heal my symptoms and I
    was finally pushed to try physical therapy.
  • Dr. Coleman was extremely welcoming and held a lot of space for me to vent my
    frustrations and give the full rundown of everything I’d tried. In our initial consultation, he
    was able to identify my weaknesses and give me a solid idea of how we could strengthen
    those to heal the root cause (which, as with most injuries, was incorrect movement
    patterns).
  • In a matter of weeks I was feeling exponentially better and throughout our time together, I
    was able to get back to hinging movements (both RDLs and barbell deadlifts from the floor)
    and even get under a barbell to squat again after taking years away from that movement in
    particular!
  • If you’re struggling with chronic injuries, I highly recommend physical therapy, and Dr.
    Coleman in particular, to support your recovery. He knows his stuff and is very easy-going,
    amazing to work with throughout the entire process and I know I can still come to him with
    questions! Thank you Sean for all your help & restoring my passion for lifting!
