Climbing Specialty
at Summit PHYSICAL THERAPY & PERFORMANCE
Doctors of Physical Therapy Specialized in Climbing Injuries & Performance
Climbing challenges the body in unique ways — from fingers and shoulders to hips and core. Whether you’re bouldering, sport climbing, or training for big alpine missions, the repetitive stress and powerful movements of climbing can take a toll. At Summit Physical Therapy & Performance, we specialize in helping climbers prevent injuries, recover fully, and optimize performance on and off the wall.
Common Climbing-Related Injuries We Treat
Our team of Doctors of Physical Therapy understands the demands of climbing and treats the most common injuries, including:
✅ Finger tendon & pulley injuries (A2, A4 sprains/ruptures)
✅ Elbow tendinopathy (climber’s elbow)
✅ Shoulder impingement & rotator cuff strains
✅ Wrist & hand pain
✅ Neck and upper back tightness
✅ Hip, knee, and ankle injuries from falls or overuse
