Kyle Zick, PTA
Physical Therapy Assistant
Kyle received his Physical Therapy Certification from Pima Medical Institute. Prior to PTA school he worked with several sports teams as a strength and conditioning coach helping several athletes reach their dream of being professional athletes. He has coached athletes to the next level in: Football, Basketball, Baseball and Softball. His passion is working with athletes of all ages and abilities. When he is not coaching, he enjoys playing baseball with his son learning new dance moves with his daughter. Kyle’s history is being a part of the United States Army /Colorado National Guard for 4.5 years and was injured to the point where he was told he would never walk without an assistive device. He was bound and determined to train and strengthen himself to be able to walk again. This is what lead him to want to pursue a career in physical therapy.
Kyle’s interest in innovative treatments for physical therapy led him to a procedure known as Blood Flow Restriction. First developed by the US military to help save the limbs of blast victims coming home from the Middle East, Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) is an amazing modality that shortens the recovery time for post-surgical patients and injuries sustained by athletes and others.
