Home » Physical Therapy for Bodybuilders,Powerlifters & CrossFit Athletes in Waukesha

At ARES Physical Therapy in Waukesha, we specialize in sport-specific rehabilitation and injury prevention exclusively for strength athletes. Unlike general clinics, our team designs customized treatment plans for bodybuilders, powerlifters, and CrossFit competitors—helping you recover faster, train smarter, and stay in the gym without long layoffs.
Physical Therapy for Bodybuilders
Bodybuilding places unique demands on muscles, joints, and connective tissue. Improper rehab often leads to imbalances, excessive joint stress, and delayed recovery. Our approach focuses on:
- Targeted treatment that addresses the root cause, not just symptoms
- Load-management strategies so you can train safely while healing
- Evidence-based mobility and stability exercises to prevent reinjury
Many of our clinicians and clients come from the competitive bodybuilding world—some are still actively competing. We understand the urgency of staying stage-ready while protecting long-term health.
Our 3-Step Bodybuilder Program
- Comprehensive movement and strength assessment
- Customized rehab plan integrated with your training split
- Progressive return-to-lifting protocol
CrossFit Physical Therapy
CrossFit athletes demand total-body resilience across Olympic lifts, gymnastics, and conditioning. You’re only as strong as your weakest link. Our specialized program gets you back to the box with better mobility, endurance, and injury resistance.
Our 3-Step CrossFit Program
- Functional movement screening (lifts, gymnastics, metabolic conditioning)
- Corrective therapy targeting weak links and overuse patterns
- Safe reintegration plan for WODs and competition
Powerlifting Physical Therapy
Powerlifters push their bodies to extreme limits—time off the platform isn’t an option. As Waukesha’s only powerlifting-specific rehab program, we analyze whole-body mechanics because compensation in one lift affects the others.
Our 3-Step Powerlifting Program
- Biomechanical analysis of squat, bench, and deadlift technique
- Injury-specific treatment with accessory lift corrections
- Safe progression back to maximal lifting
