Physical therapy is a vital component of injury recovery, providing patients with a safe, effective way to regain function and improve quality of life. However, not all physical therapy is created equal. Specialized care can make all the difference in achieving positive outcomes. Especially in the areas of sports physical therapy, acute injury care, and post-operative rehab.

Welcome to HIDEF Bellevue Physical Therapy

HIDEF Physical Therapy in Bellevue Wa just celebrated 2 years! Throughout the past 2 years we have been treating clients with a wide variety of conditions and from all backgrounds.

We Offer More Ways To Help You!

Sports Physical Therapy

Sports medicine is aimed at treating athletes who have sustained injuries during play. Our specialized program concentrates on aiding athletes of all levels, from weekend warriors to professionals, to resume their activities at full capacity. Our physical therapist’s sole mission is to enhance the patient's physical fitness level and minimize the risk of future injuries. Sports related injuries take a special level of attention to detail to get back to sport and avoid future recurrence.

Sports medicine is different from typical physical therapy in that we get you in quickly and work to address your goals including sports related activity.

You may say to yourself "well I'm not an athlete. Why would I want sports physical therapy?". First off, if you lead an active lifestyle, you are an athlete to us. We want to help you stay active so you can enjoy your free time without having to suffer from pain and limitation. Our team can even help with wellness goals such as weight loss, cardiovascular health, and fall prevention.

Acute Injury Care

Acute injury care provides physical therapy to individuals who have recently experienced a sudden injury. These kinds of injuries include joint injuries, muscle injuries, sprains, and strains. Our skilled physical therapists are trained to assess the severity of injury and create a customized recovery plan to help clients heal and recover from their injuries in a safe and practical manner.

Post-Surgical Rehab

Post-operative rehab programs are put in place to aid patients in recovering speedily and efficiently following a surgery. Physical therapy following knee surgery aims to help patients regain range of motion, achieve muscle strength to support joints, and improve overall mobility. Our physical therapists use a comprehensive approach to optimize healing and help our patients return to their daily routines as soon as possible.

Some of the surgeries we commonly work with include:
