🤸‍♀️ Stronger, Safer, and Ready to Shine! 🌟

We loved teaming up with our neighbors at Allstar Gymnastics—just steps away from our Commerce Township clinic—for a hands-on, high-energy in-service! 🙌 Our physical therapy team challenged these talented athletes with a series of balance, stability, and core strength drills—all designed to help them prevent injuries, improve body control, and stay competition-ready. 🏆💪

Gymnastics demands precision, strength, and stability—and our goal is to make sure these athletes can keep doing what they love, without setbacks. From warm-up strategies to targeted exercises, we’re here to help gymnasts move better, recover faster, and stay at their peak.

📍 Curious how we can help you or your gymnast stay healthy and strong?

Meet Dominic! 🌟 He joined HealthQuest Shelby as a Physical Therapist in August 2017 and has been making a difference in patients’ lives ever since 🙌

Dominic always knew he wanted to work in healthcare, originally planning to become a physician like his dad. But during college, a bad case of back pain from a summer landscaping job led him to physical therapy — and it completely changed his career path. Working one-on-one with a PT who helped him recover sparked his passion for the musculoskeletal system and helping others regain their function and quality of life.

After working as a PT tech in an outpatient clinic, Dominic completed his final clinical rotation at HealthQuest Shelby and knew it was the perfect place to start his career. 💪

He’s especially interested in strength & conditioning, how the body adapts and heals, and building strong relationships with everyone he meets. Dominic takes pride in working hard, striving for excellence, and always finding opportunities to grow.

Meet Jonathan! 🌟 He joined the HealthQuest Oxford team in June 2022 and is now thriving in his role as a Physical Therapist 🙌

Jonathan’s path to PT was unique — unlike many in the field, he never went through therapy for his own injuries. Instead, he researched the happiest careers, combined that with his athletic background, and found a passion for helping people heal through movement and biomechanics. 🏋️‍♂️

After playing college football at Wayne State and earning his bachelor’s in Kinesiology in 2020, Jonathan took an unorthodox leap and completed his PT education in Ireland at the University of Limerick 🇮🇪. While in school, he worked as a tech at HealthQuest Oxford and knew it was the perfect fit for his professional goals.

Outside the clinic, Jonathan enjoys Mixed Martial Arts, playing music, and spending time outdoors hunting and fishing 🎣.

101: Learn about treatment

Dry Needling at HQPT:
Dry needling is a technique used by our physical therapists to relieve pain and improve mobility. It involves inserting fine, sterile needles into trigger points or tight muscles to release tension and promote healing.

How It Works:
The goal of dry needling is to release muscle tension, reduce pain, and promote healing. When the needle is inserted into a trigger point, it stimulates a local twitch response, which helps to relax the muscle, improve blood flow, and decrease pain. This process can also help to break the cycle of pain and muscle spasm that often contributes to chronic discomfort.

Benefits of Dry Needling:
Reduces muscle soreness and stiffness
Decreases pain caused by knots or tight muscles
Restores normal muscle function and movement
Accelerates recovery from injuries
