Orthopedic physical therapy treats the muscles, joints, ligaments, and bones that keep you moving. Dr. Pindar is a Board Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist — an advanced credential held by fewer than 10% of physical therapists nationwide. Whether you're dealing with chronic joint pain, a muscle strain from the slopes, or movement dysfunction limiting your active Vail Valley lifestyle, you'll get a full hour of expert, hands-on care every visit.
From diagnosis to full recovery — a systematic approach to getting you back to the activities you love.
We don't chase symptoms. A comprehensive movement assessment identifies why you hurt — not just where — so treatment targets the actual problem.
Hands-on joint mobilization, soft tissue work, and myofascial release to restore mobility and reduce pain. Combined with corrective exercise for lasting results.
Progressive strengthening and movement retraining to get you back to your activities — whether that's skiing, hiking, or playing with your kids.
From chronic joint pain to acute injuries — expert orthopedic care for the conditions that limit your active lifestyle.
Knee, hip, shoulder, and ankle pain from wear, overuse, or injury. We restore motion and build strength to reduce pain and improve function.
Acute and chronic muscle/ligament injuries. Proper treatment prevents chronic weakness and re-injury.
Disc issues, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and postural dysfunction. Evidence-based manual therapy and exercise for lasting relief.
Compensation patterns, muscle imbalances, and mobility restrictions that limit performance and increase injury risk.
Advanced credentials, dedicated care, and an integrated approach — orthopedic rehab done right.
OCS certification means thousands of additional clinical hours beyond a standard PT degree. Dr. Pindar is among the most qualified orthopedic PTs in the Vail Valley.
No double-booking, no techs, no assistants. Your full session is with Dr. Pindar, every time.
Manual therapy + dry needling + corrective exercise + sport-specific rehab. Multiple tools, one treatment plan, one provider.
