Licensed PT Recovery Sessions for Visiting Athletes & Active Travelers in Scottsdale & Arcadia
Don't let a sore body ruin your trip.
You're visiting Scottsdale or Arcadia to golf, hike, play pickleball, compete, or enjoy everything Arizona has to offer. The last thing you need is a tight back, cranky shoulder, or sore legs keeping you off the course or trail.
Corrective Physical Therapy offers targeted recovery sessions for visitors who want to keep moving while they're in the Phoenix area. Using hands-on techniques and physical therapy modalities, we'll help your body recover quicker so you can get back to the activities you came here to enjoy.
Recovery for Active Travelers
Traveling and recreational activities can take a toll on your body. Maybe you've played 36 holes over two days at Kierland or you're in town for a pickleball tournament at The Picklr. Maybe you've spent the day hiking up North in Sedona, and your legs aren't quite ready for tomorrow.
You don't need a full course of physical therapy. Sometimes you just need focused recovery from a Doctor of Physical Therapy who understands what active bodies need to keep performing.
Our recovery sessions are designed for exactly that. They’re for out-of-town guests who need targeted, short-term support while they're in the Scottsdale or Arcadia area.
What Can a Recovery Session Include?
Your session is customized based on what your body needs that day and the activities you have planned.
This isn't a preset routine. Your licensed physical therapist will determine which techniques make sense based on how you're feeling and what you plan to do next on your trip.
Depending on your situation, your session may include:
-

Manual Therapy
Manual therapy includes hands-on techniques designed to address areas of tightness, restricted movement, and muscular irritation.
-

Dry Needling
Dry needling is targeted technique that can be used to address muscle tension and areas contributing to restricted movement or discomfort.
-

Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a physical therapy modality used as part of a broader recovery approach.
-

Cupping
A technique that uses negative pressure to address areas of muscular tension and support movement.
-

Scraping
Instrument-assisted techniques may be used to address areas of soft-tissue restriction and help improve movement.
-

Stretching & Mobility
Focused stretching and mobility work to help restore movement and prepare your body for continued activity.
Keep Playing. Keep Exploring. Keep Moving.
-

Here for a Golf Trip?
It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
-

Visiting for a Pickleball Tournament?
Repeated quick movements, changes of direction, and hours on the court can leave your body feeling the effects. A targeted recovery session can help you prepare for your next match.
-

Hiking in Arizona?
Long hikes can challenge your legs, hips, feet, and back—especially if you're not accustomed to the terrain. Recovery work can help you address tightness and mobility limitations so you can keep exploring.
-

Here for Something Else?
Your activity doesn't have to fit into a specific category. If you're visiting the Scottsdale or Arcadia area for an active vacation, recreational event, or tournament, we can tailor your session around what you're doing while you're here.
Designed for Visitors. Not a Long-Term Commitment.
This service is specifically designed for people visiting the Scottsdale or Arcadia areas who want focused recovery while they're here.
You don't need to establish an ongoing physical therapy plan. You don't need to become a long-term patient. You just need to schedule a session, meet with one of our licensed physical therapists, and get targeted recovery work based on what your body needs.
It's a practical option for active travelers who don't want a minor ache or accumulated soreness to derail the rest of their trip.
Patient Testimonials
Dr. Matt has been a lifesaver to me. I was convinced that I needed to have another lumbar fusion in my spine and was ready to schedule surgery with my neurosurgeon due to persistent back pain and numbness in my leg. Fortunately, my chiropractor referred me to Dr. Matt and I couldn’t be happier. Having tried other PTs in the past, I was reluctant but I’m so grateful that I did. Instead of cookie cutter PT exercises, Dr. Matt works with you on a one-on-one basis. He carefully listens to you and evaluates your every move, modifying as necessary. Dr. Matt also built exercise programs for my home/gym use, flare ups, as well as for travel. I would recommend Dr. Matt without any reservation whatsoever! Dr. Danny is also exceptional and I’m so grateful for both of them!
— Carol B.Dr. Matt Brown is the best physical therapist I’ve ever worked with. I suffered from constant back issues for most of my life and had seen several PT and Chiropractors in the past. None came close to Dr. Matt’s expertise. He not only fixed my back pain, but taught me how to correctly do many exercises I struggled to do in the past. I cannot recommend him enough. Thank you again Dr. Matt!
— Nicholas G.I came to Dr. Matt when I was struggling with my foot pain. I live an active life with gymnastics, fitness, and outdoor activities that I didn’t want to put on hold. He has allowed me to continue those activities while being with me every step of the way. He understands the process, believes movement is medicine, and is just a great guy! I recommend him both here and to my 1-on-1 stretch/training clients. Thank you Dr. Matt!
