Empower Gymnastics Physical Therapy

Empower Gymnastics Physical Therapy is a gymnastics-specific physical therapy and strength training practice founded by Matthew Power, PT, DPT, OCS.

Matthew works with competitive gymnasts of all levels, with a particular focus on high school and college-age athletes. His approach combines physical therapy, strength and conditioning, and firsthand experience in gymnastics to help athletes recover from injuries, address recurring pain, build physical capacity, and stay healthy throughout their gymnastics careers.

Rehabilitation at Empower Gymnastics PT goes beyond simply getting an athlete out of pain. Programs are designed around the actual demands of gymnastics, progressively developing strength, mobility, stability, power, and confidence before returning athletes to skills, routines, and full training.

Matthew also works with parents, coaches, and other healthcare professionals to improve communication and create a clear path from injury to full participation.

In addition to clinical practice, Matthew is a gymnastics coach and educator. He has coached competitive gymnastics and presented at USA Gymnastics Congress on strength training, power, and athlete resiliency.

Areas of focus include: 

• Gymnastics injury rehabilitation
• Return-to-sport programming
• Strength and conditioning
• Injury prevention
• Recurring pain
  Physical preparation
• Athlete education. 
• Services are available both locally and virtually.
