About ProActive Physical Therapy
The owners of ProActive Physical Therapy, Brian Benjamin, PT, DPT, PRC and Andy Collingwood have over 47 years of combined experience with outpatient physical therapy and therapeutic exercise programs. In 2008, they took the positive aspects and approaches in these settings to form the foundation of ProActive PT. Since then, Craig Depperschmidt, PT, DPT, PRC, Sara Truelsen, PT, DPT, Theresa Benjamin, PT, DPT, Michele Munsil, PT, DPT, and Addison Huck, PT, DPT have joined the team and have become an integral part towards the overall growth and success of ProActive PT.
ProActive PT has been expanding its staff and its networked services to be physical rehabilitation, therapeutic exercise, and athletic performance leaders in the Fort Collins area. An area often overlooked in the recovery process is addressing underlying positional asymmetries and altered biomechanics, which often lead to symptoms of pain and dysfunction. The staff works hard to determine the cause of a problem and not just the symptoms, and does so by using respiratory, manual, and therapeutic exercise techniques to develop an individualized patient program, while also educating patients to prevent future problems.
