🚴‍♀️ Big news from our friends —they just returned from California, where they spent the week at Specialized HQ learning the very latest in bike fit theory and technology alongside some of the best fitters in the world!

At Open Range Physical Therapy, we believe that a professional bike fit is the foundation for both comfort and performance on the bike. However, even the most dialed-in fit can’t fully make up for underlying strength or mobility issues.

This is why integrating a professional bike fit with physical therapy tailored to cyclists can truly optimize performance and comfort.

When you get a professional fit , ask for one of our $30 discount cards—good toward your next PT session with Open Range Physical Therapy. Together, we’ll keep you rolling stronger, longer, and pain-free. 🙌

🌟 One of the things we hear most often from patients is how different their care feels at Open Range PT. Instead of a “one-size-fits-all” routine, you’ll get a treatment plan designed specifically for your unique needs and goals—so you can see the best possible results.

Here’s what one patient recently shared:

"Melissa is one of the most amazing PTs I have ever worked with! She listened to me and came up with a plan and exercises to specifically pinpoint MY issues. It wasn’t some generic “this is what our big group does for everyone” type of plan and my recovery proved that! Bonus, she treated ALL my issues not just the one I initially called about. She helped me understand how they were all related. You could tell that she thought about my treatment and issues after she left as she would message me other ideas between appointments.

Can’t recommend her enough! Plus, I LOVE that she came to my home to do the treatment! A+"

💡 Whether it’s your knee, shoulder, back—or all of the above—we’ll work with you to address the bigger picture so you can get back to doing what you love.

🌟 Patient Success Story 🌟

We love celebrating wins like this! One of our recent patients came to us after struggling with constant shoulder, arm, and hand pain that was significantly affecting his quality of life.

Over the past year, he had already seen multiple physician specialists and another physical therapist, but nothing brought relief. Thankfully, after a thorough evaluation and highly personalized treatment sessions with Open Range PT, his symptoms have almost completly resolved and he’s getting back to the activities he loves. 🚵‍♂️🏋️⛵️

Here’s what his wife shared recently:

"My husband was to a point nothing was working to relieve his shoulder/ arm/wrist/hand pain. This pain was starting to affect his quality of life. Melissa stepped in and helped him regain his life back. She listened, researched and developed a plan of treatment. She spent the time it took to really evaluate the issue at the consultation. She continued to reevaluate as they progressed in regaining the use of his arm. She is highly professional, extremely knowledgeable and kind. Should we ever need physical therapy needs in the future we will return to Melissa at Open Range Physical Therapy!"

Helping our patients move better, feel better, and live better is why we do what we do. 💜

✨ If pain is holding you back, don’t wait—reach out today. We’d be honored to help you find relief and get back to enjoying life again.

Fred Schmid is 92 years old, and still chasing adventure on the gravel roads of the Flint Hills. 🔥🚴‍♂️

We have heard about Fred for the last few years and we were equally inspired by his story again this year at Unbound Gravel!

At Open Range Physical Therapy, we love helping people stay strong and injury free so they can keep doing the activities they love- whether they are 12 or 92! 🚴🏼‍♂️🏃🏼🏌🏼‍♂️🏋️

But we’re not just focused on short-term recovery. We’re always thinking long-term — helping our patients build strength, mobility, and resilience so they can keep doing what they love, not just today, but for years (and decades!) to come.

Here’s to staying strong for life’s adventures — at every age!

Melissa Warders

This year, 92-year-old legend, Fred Schmid, was the eldest person to ever take on the infamous Flint Hills.

"As I get older, the chance of my completing in UNBOUND 200 diminishes. But the fire still burns in my breast." 🔥 "Basically, I just have an adventure. It’s a pretty good life."

Nuff said, Fred. 🤘
