Physical Therapist, DPT, & Owner

Dr. Adam Javate is a Henderson, NV native. His interest in physical therapy began with enduring multiple wrist/hand injuries during high school and college baseball requiring several surgeries and physical therapy. He received his bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from California State University at Northridge in 2012. At CSUN he worked in the Biomechanics lab researching youth baseball pitching kinematics and muscle activation patterns during throwing activities and taught adjunct exercise science preparatory classes during his senior year.

He received his Doctor of Physical Therapy in 2015 from the University of St. Augustine in San Marcos, CA. He presented an abstract poster presentation entitled, “The Management of Chronic Myofascial Thoracolumbar Pain with Dry Needling, Spinal Manipulation and Exercise: A Case Report” at the 2016 APTA Combined Sections Meeting in Anaheim, CA. Dr. Javate’s core philosophy is to restore functional movement patterns and empower patients to reclaim physical capacity in their lives. He is a strong advocate of the use of functional screens such as the Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA), Functional Movement Screen (FMS) to identify movement patterns contributing to pain and dysfunction. He utilizes several manual therapy techniques including spinal and extremity joint manipulation/mobilization, soft tissue mobilization, instrument assisted and neurodynamic techniques combined with neuromuscular retraining to facilitate the proper retraining of pain free movement and return to pain free activity participation. Dr. Javate also is certified through the Titleist Performance Institute as a Level II Medical Provider and Junior Golf Development Specialist, rehabilitating golf injuries and improving performance.
