Kris is a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT), a Certified Strength and Conditioning Coach (CSCS), and an Ergonomic Assessment Specialist (CEAS-I). Through years of clinical practice, and through experiences as an educator, researcher, and athlete, Kris helps his clients determine and implement the most effective, evidence-based solutions, to meet unique and complex biomechanical demands.
How It Began
Valid Physical Therapy Services grew through meeting tens of thousands of unique people who, through their sport, their lives, their activities, their aspirations, or their full-time jobs, require the exceptional performances of highly complex physical movements. High performers are positioned to flourish, both inside and outside 'the lines', when their physical growth is built on a foundation of respect, dedication, scholarship, and joy. Through years of experiences in the clinics, in the labs, and in the arenas, I learned a lot, including what I do best: evaluating movement, and helping people realize their capacity for it.
