Physical Therapy for Active Adults
Because What Matters to You Matters to Us
Not everyone dreams of competing in a marathon or returning to a championship game.
For many people, success means taking a walk with the dog without pain. Spending a Saturday in the garden. Hiking Maine’s trails. Playing a round of golf. Carrying a grandchild. Climbing stairs with confidence. Simply enjoying an active life.
At Forza Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine, we believe those goals deserve the same level of attention, expertise, and commitment as returning a collegiate athlete to competition or helping a first responder return to duty.
Because what matters to you matters to us.
Your Goals Define Success
Success in rehabilitation isn’t measured by someone else’s expectations. It’s measured by yours.
Whether your goal is walking around the block, returning to pickleball, traveling comfortably, enjoying retirement, or keeping up with your grandchildren, your rehabilitation program should reflect the life you want to live.
At Forza Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine, we don’t define success by how much weight you lift or how fast you run.
We define success by helping you return to the activities that bring purpose, independence, and enjoyment to your life.
EVERY LIFESTYLE IS DIFFERENT
Just as every athlete has different demands, every active adult has different priorities.
You might enjoy:
- Walking
- Hiking
- Gardening
- Yardwork
- DIY projects
- Golf
- Pickleball
- Tennis
- Cycling
- Kayaking
- Fishing
- Hunting
- Skiing
- Snowshoeing
- General fitness and exercise
- Playing with your children or grandchildren
- Traveling
- Staying independent around your home
Your rehabilitation should prepare you for those activities—not simply reduce your pain.
WE TREAT MORE THAN INJURIES
Many people believe physical therapy is only for surgery or major injuries.
In reality, we commonly help people manage:
- Arthritis
- Balance problems
- Joint pain
- Tendon injuries
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Shoulder pain
- Hip pain
- Knee pain
- Foot and ankle conditions

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be an athlete to come to Forza?
Absolutely not.
While sports medicine is one of our specialties, many of our patients simply want to live active, healthy lives. Whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing arthritis, treating a painful shoulder, or hoping to walk more comfortably, we’re here to help.
Am I too old for physical therapy?
No.
People of all ages can benefit from physical therapy. Treatment is individualized to your health, goals, and activity level, whether you’re 25 or 85.
What if I just want to move better?
That’s one of the best reasons to see a physical therapist.
Many people seek physical therapy to improve mobility, flexibility, strength, balance, or confidence before pain becomes a major limitation.
How will you know if treatment is working?
At your first visit, we’ll discuss what success looks like for you. Throughout your rehabilitation, we’ll measure your progress based on your functional goals—not simply your pain level.
Your Goals Are Worth Pursuing
You don’t have to be a competitive athlete for your goals to matter.
Whether you’re hoping to enjoy retirement, stay active with your family, continue your favorite hobbies, or simply move through life with less pain, we’re committed to helping you get there.
Schedule an evaluation today and let us help you return to the life you enjoy.
