Here at the Charlotte Athlete, we are driving change in the rehabilitative field and raising the bar for what transformative physical therapy can do for you. Our team of fellowship-trained physical therapists stands apart from traditional clinics providing holistic, comprehensive, and collaborative care offerings to GET. YOU. RESULTS.

We focus on identifying the root of the issue, targeting the specific areas that impact your performance, and personalizing each plan to drive lasting change.
