This is Colette’s Story

What people are saying.

  • "I play soccer quite often and never had injured my knee, so for me this was shocking and concerning. I tried googling and see if there was something I could do myself, but that was overwhelming because I didn't know if I would hurt myself even more. Finally I decided to do PT instead. I found Laurel and I have to say her work was amazing. she customized the PT after assessing what I needed, in just two sessions I started to feel better, not only did she helped me recover but although thought me to strengthen my knee so I will prevent further injuries. I would highly recommend doing PT with Laurel. I hope I don't get injure again but if I do, I know laurel will help me out!"

    -Luis P

  • “Laurel has been helping our son recover from a sport injury and she has been wonderful. Her knowledge and expertise are evident immediately and she has effectively used multiple modalities to help our son have tremendous improvement in a short time. She also keeps things fun and engaging for him as he works through rehab and performance exercises. He looks forward to his appointments. He is back to playing the sports that he loves, thank you Laurel!"

    — Jim J

  • “I’ve been having lower back pain for years! After working with Laurel for several sessions, I am now pain free and have much better mobility. I’ve gained strength in my lifts and distance in my drives, it has been amazing! Thank you for the awesome job you do.”

    — Greg S

  • “My family has used Laurel for years before before and after her going out into her own practice. She has always been the best PT always positive, with strong guidance and expertise to help get and keep our bodies in athletic readiness!!! Love her!.”

    — Anita H

  • "Laurel is fantastic at what she does! One of the challenges with making clients fit and strong is that they get hurt doing all of the cool things Austin has to offer, especially weekend warriors participating in sports. Having a rehab specialist who focuses on sports and orthopedics like Laurel to refer to means these particular clients get the care they need with an eye and understanding of the unique stressors they place on their body. Personally, Laurel treated a shoulder injury from child rearing that I had been dealing with. Her attention to detail was apparent and her constrained prescription of rehab exercises (just 3!) made adhering to the treatment plan easy, which meant faster recovering. Highly recommended!"

    -Smart Strength

  • "Laurel is the consummate professional in her field and has absolutely done wonders for my recovery. I have been with her for the last year and half and since starting Athlete’s Edge. She is extremely professional and flexible and definitely caters to everyone’s specific needs. If you are looking for a great PT in the area or Austin in general I highly recommend her."

    -Ricky M

  • "Don’t give up! I am pain free!! I was Hopelessly playing tennis and living through a persistent tennis elbow and a lower back disc bulge. Laurel used a combination of techniques that really got ahead of all it and was even able to treat other lifelong injuries I had resolved to live with. I felt supported from the first day and always found she listened to me intently. We accomplished so much! Thank you so much Laurel and Athletes’ Edge!!"

YOUR QUESTIONS,

OUR ANSWERS!

  • A large number of the people we work with utilize their insurance benefits. As an out-of-network provider in Austin, we provide you with all the necessary paperwork that gives you the opportunity to submit to your insurance for consideration for reimbursement.

  • The care you will receive from our providers is unparalleled to your typical in-network physical therapy experience in Austin.

    Your PT will never be seeing multiple patients at the same time, pass you off to a volunteer/aide, or have you work through the same ‘cookie-cutter’ exercises week in and week out.

    Your entire visit is spent 1:1 with one of our highly specialized Doctors of Physical Therapy where we will clearly outline the root factors contributing to your pain experience and lay out a game plan for a path to recovery.

  • We are committed to resolving your issues! You will receive 60 minutes of focused 1-on-1 care and each visit is with a highly specialized Doctor of Physical Therapy. We take you through our three step process where we'll take a dive into your background and current status, talk through your goals, and come up with a game plan for tackling your issues.

  • This depends on your specific situation, diagnosis, and goals. In most cases, we have you feeling significant improvement in a matter of 2-3 visits.

    We strive to minimize the number of sessions you need by providing you with the tools, education, and understanding of how to recover to be better than you were before needing PT.

    Recovering from an injury is never black and white; however, we look to provide you with a road map for your recovery through a customized, collaborative plan with one of our expert clinicians.

  • Physical therapy is a different approach than taking something like a pill or injection. We are looking to address your problem through bodily changes that take dedication, time, and consistency throughout each week.

    Between visits, you will be provided a list of exercises via custom video recordings and education on how you can best keep yourself active, moving, and exercising.

    All the while, you have the ability to maintain open communication with your PT for any questions or guidance you need between visits.
