Why Choose Muscle Restoration Therapy?

Pain is a signal, and where it hurts is rarely where the problem started. At Muscle Restoration Therapy in Fort Collins, we use functional muscle testing to find the muscles that have stopped working correctly, the muscle dysfunction causing your pain, and we treat that cause instead of chasing the symptom.

Every plan starts with an evaluation, so your care fits you instead of one method for every symptom. For the full picture of what we offer locally, see our pain management services in Fort Collins.

Root-cause first

Functional muscle testing finds the muscles that have stopped working correctly and the compensation patterns causing your pain.

Multimodal & non-invasive

Your plan can combine hands-on muscle work, SoftWave, laser therapy, PEMF, spinal decompression or other supportive therapies.

Personal plan & roadmap

You’ll understand what we found, why it matters, and what the next step in your care plan looks like.

Our Fort Collins clinic helps people with back pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, neck pain, foot pain, neuropathy symptoms, and other muscle or joint concerns.

Common Pain Conditions We Treat

Start with the concern that matches your symptoms, such as back pain relief, knee pain relief, SoftWave therapy or Muscle Restoration Therapy, or explore all of the conditions we treat in Fort Collins.

Shoulder Pain Relief

Shoulder pain can interfere with sleep, work, lifting, exercise and simple daily tasks. MRT finds the muscles that stopped working and restores them, so the shoulder stops taking the extra load.

Back Pain Relief

Back pain can make sitting, standing and sleeping harder than they should be. MRT finds the muscle dysfunction causing it and treats that, not just where it hurts.

Knee Pain Relief

Knee pain can make stairs, walking, exercise and everyday movement more difficult. MRT finds the muscles around the knee that stopped working and restores them.

Neck Pain Relief

Neck pain can affect driving, sleeping, working and daily comfort. MRT finds the muscle dysfunction causing the stiffness and tension and treats the cause.

Foot Pain Relief

Foot and heel pain, including plantar fasciitis, can affect balance and activity. MRT finds the muscle dysfunction causing it, in the foot, calf or hip, and treats that.

Neuropathy Relief

Numbness, tingling or burning can affect comfort, balance and activity. MRT offers non-invasive care that can support circulation and tissue health alongside restoring the muscles that are not working.

Treatment Options at MRT

MRT uses a combination of hands-on care and advanced non-invasive therapies to support pain relief, movement, and recovery. Your recommended treatment plan depends on your symptoms, testing results, and goals.

Muscle Restoration
Therapy

This treatment focuses on testing and addressing muscle dysfunction, identifying and treating the root cause of pain and discomfort to restore proper muscle function and improve overall well-being.

SoftWave

SoftWave is a form of shockwave therapy. Its acoustic waves trigger your body’s natural healing and cellular repair processes in damaged tissue, support tissue regeneration and increase blood flow to the area.

Pelvic Floor Therapy

Non-invasive pelvic floor therapy in our HIEMT chair. You sit fully clothed for a 30-minute session while the chair strengthens the deep pelvic floor muscles, and every program starts with an evaluation.

Class IV Laser
Therapy

Class IV laser therapy increases circulation, which reduces inflammation and helps tissue heal. It is a therapeutic laser, not a surgical one, and a session feels warm with no needles, no drugs and no downtime.

PEMF

Pulsed electromagnetic fields applied at set frequencies support circulation and tissue recovery. You feel the muscles contract, and it is added when it fits your plan.

ARRC-LED
Light Bed

Full-body LED light sessions are available as a supportive recovery and wellness option. Learn how red and near-infrared light are used on the dedicated service page.

Spinal Decompression

Spinal decompression with the Back On Trac system gently reduces pressure on the discs of the spine and restores natural movement, with no surgery and no medication.

Mito2 - Intermittent Hypoxic-Hyperoxic Training

Muscle Restoration Therapy is proud to introduce Total Brain & Body O₂ Therapy, a science-backed, non-invasive system that supports healing, performance, and full-body recovery.

Muscle Restoration Therapy FAQs

What does a pain relief clinic in Fort Collins do?

A pain relief clinic helps find what is causing pain, limited movement or recurring discomfort. At MRT in Fort Collins, the focus is on testing muscle function and movement patterns and choosing non-invasive care instead of masking symptoms.

The right treatment depends on your symptoms, history, goals and how your body responds during the evaluation. MRT can recommend a combination of therapies based on what fits your situation.

MRT helps people with back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, knee pain, foot and heel pain, neuropathy symptoms, plantar fasciitis, pelvic floor concerns, and other muscle or joint-related pain issues.

No. MRT focuses on non-invasive care such as functional muscle work, SoftWave, laser therapy, PEMF, spinal decompression and related therapies. If you need medication or other medical care, the team helps you understand when to speak with a medical provider.

Every person responds differently. Some people notice changes within the first few visits, while others need a structured plan over several weeks depending on the severity, duration, and complexity of their symptoms.

MRT is a cash-based clinic, so care can be personalized without insurance limitations. We can provide a superbill for you to submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement, and we accept HSA and FSA cards. Contact the clinic for current pricing and appointment options.

Start with a first appointment. We test which muscles are not working, treat what we find in the same visit and tell you straight whether MRT fits alongside the care you get from your doctor. The MRT Guarantee: Feel at least 50% better after your first pain management visit, or it’s free.

The first visit covers where your symptoms show up, what aggravates them and which non-invasive options fit. The team explains the likely starting plan before care begins.

The number of visits varies by condition, severity, goals, and how your body responds. MRT will help you understand what progress should look like after the first evaluation.
