Integrated Physical Therapy Care in White Bear Lake

Our Core Services

At Ascension, physical therapy isn’t just about pain relief — it’s about building capacity that lasts. We start with your goals, assess how your body moves, and design a plan that restores what’s missing: not just mobility, but strength, coordination, and confidence.
Exercise is the foundation of our approach. Every session includes targeted strength and movement work designed to rebuild resilience, not just manage symptoms. And when it makes sense, we integrate skilled interventions like:
- Dry Needling to reduce pain and improve muscle activation
- Cupping to support blood flow and tissue recovery
- Joint Mobilizations to improve movement quality and reduce restrictions
- Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training to safely build strength when loading is limited
These tools are never the whole plan — they’re strategic supports that help you get back to lifting, training, hiking, or simply living with fewer limitations.
If you’re ready for care that prioritizes your strength, respects your autonomy, and supports real progress — you’ll feel at home here.

Whether you’re an athlete, lifter, or weekend warrior, we help you go beyond just "feeling better." Our performance rehab bridges the gap between rehab and full return to sport or gym training.
You’ll work with a clinician who:
- Builds a sport-specific plan tailored to your goals
- Uses strength & movement metrics to track your progress
- Coaches you back to full speed—physically and mentally
We don’t stop at “pain-free.” We help you perform better than before.

The Process

This isn’t a quick intake or a box-checking evaluation. It’s a deep dive into what actually matters to you.
You’ll meet 1-on-1 with a Doctor of Physical Therapy who listens first—then observes how you move, understands your goals, and helps map a clear path forward. This conversation sets the tone for a plan built around you, not your diagnosis.
"I felt like—for the first time—someone actually saw the full picture of what I was dealing with."
No more handouts or one-size-fits-all routines. You’ll get a fully personalized rehab + performance plan that’s:
- Delivered through our app (with demo videos and daily structure)
- Updated weekly based on how you're responding
- Flexible to match your week-to-week reality
We pair in-person sessions (as needed) with remote support through messaging, video feedback, and real-time plan updates—so your progress doesn’t stop just because your schedule changes.
"It felt like my provider was with me throughout the week—not just in the clinic."
Our goal isn’t just to get you out of pain—it’s to help you feel strong, capable, and in control again.
We track progress beyond just symptom relief:
- Trust in your body
- Consistency and resilience
- Expanded movement capacity
Most clients feel meaningful change in just 4–6 weeks—not from doing more, but from doing the right things consistently.
"I didn’t just get better—I started doing things I thought were off-limits forever."
- It’s not one-size-fits-all. Your plan is 100% individualized.
- It’s not built for insurance companies. It’s built for your outcome.
- It’s not rushed. You’ll have real communication, context, and support every step of the way.

Our Philosophy: Training Is Healthcare

We believe rehab isn’t just about fixing pain. It’s about expanding what your body is capable of—so you can engage more fully with your life.

That’s why we treat every plan as a collaborative process, not a protocol. We don’t just want you to recover. We want you to build something stronger than before:
