About Spine & Sports Physical Therapy

Spine & Sports Physical Therapy is an outpatient physical therapy practice in Ridgefield, Connecticut, located at 9 Ethan Allen Highway. The clinic provides individualized physical therapy for people dealing with pain, injury, post-operative needs, sports-related problems, and musculoskeletal or neuromuscular conditions. Its care model centers on direct time with a physical therapist, with hour-long visits and no aides or assistants used for treatment. The practice describes its approach as whole-person and goal-focused, looking beyond a single painful area to identify movement limits, joint restrictions, muscle imbalances, nerve-related symptoms, and other contributors to pain or reduced function.

Services include Osteopractic Physical Therapy, dry needling, spinal and extremity manipulation, instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization, exercise prescription, and integrative manual therapy. The website identifies conditions involving the neck, back, pelvis, shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, lower leg, foot, head and jaw, as well as sports injuries, post-operative rehabilitation, BPPV, headaches, TMJ/TMD, pregnancy-related pubic symphysis symptoms, and postpartum pelvic pain. Treatment may include manual therapy, joint mobilization or manipulation, soft tissue techniques, dry needling with or without electrical stimulation, stretching, strengthening, balance work, motor control training, and functional exercise progression.

The clinical team includes Dr. Philip Denema, PT, DPT, ATC, FAAOMPT, who is the owner and a physical therapist specialist with advanced training in orthopedic manual therapy, osteopractic care, spinal manipulation, dry needling, and vestibular rehabilitation. The site also lists Dr. Brandon Learned, PT, DPT, OCS, with training in dry needling and vestibular rehabilitation, and Michele Morris, PT, who has extensive experience in outpatient orthopedic care, integrative manual therapy, craniosacral therapy, neuromobilization, osteoporosis-focused training, and dry needling coursework.

Frequently Asked Questions

Patients work one-on-one with a physical therapist. The clinic says it does not use aides or assistants for treatment time, so visits are designed around direct therapist care.

The first appointment is scheduled for one hour. The visit includes time to discuss the injury, how it started, how it affects daily life, the patient's goals, a full evaluation, and the start of treatment.

Follow-up visits are also scheduled for one hour, with up to an hour of one-on-one therapist time and no overlap with other patients. Treatment is individualized and may include hands-on therapy, exercises, and dry needling when appropriate.

The website says Connecticut allows direct access to physical therapy, so patients can come to the clinic without first seeing a physician for a prescription.

The FAQ states that the clinic is in network with Medicare, Tricare, Anthem, and Auto. It is out of network with other insurance plans and can submit an out-of-network claim after collecting payment at the visit.

The clinic recommends comfortable, loose clothing that lets the therapist access the painful area. For knee pain, the site suggests shorts or pants that can be pulled over the knee, and notes that a changing area is available.
