Physical Therapy and Post Rehab Training in wentzville, MO
Meet Dr. Julie Smith, Doctor of Physical Therapy and Wellness Coach

Some have tried physical therapy before but were at a clinic where they just repeated a bunch of exercises they could do on their own time, and the physical therapist rushed from one patient to the next rarely using any hands-on manual therapy or spending much one-on-one time with them.
Some have even had surgery that didn’t solve the problem, and occasionally made them worse.

You just need the right treatment to get you back to the pain free life you love. You deserve that.
I have the treatment you need. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy and Health Coach, I have worked with hundreds of patients just like you- patients who had to modify their activity level- only to find that wasn’t the answer. My holistic approach to physical therapy empowers you to heal and quickly return to the life you love.
Post Rehab Training
Emerge coaches are movement specialists. Following an injury and rehab, an Emerge coach can decrease the time it takes to get back-to-play with athlete specific strength training, safely.
Post rehab training, as with all performance training, involves specialized exercise to correct something that has gone “wrong” with the musculoskeletal system including muscle imbalances, strength discrepancies, and joint range of motion limitations.
Exercise for Pain Management
Our process takes traditional exercise a step further because we focus on the sustainability of our clients through permanent strength increases. If the changes you make with your rehab exercises aren’t sustainable, it isn’t pain management exercise. It’s Advil.
Medication will help you feel better in the short run, but we are looking for lasting change.
An Emerge Fitness coach can develop a specific, targeted strength program for chronic pain, including the most common areas:
1) Back
2) Knees
3) Shoulders
4) Neck
Sustained and significant relief can be realized with a consistent dedication to a targeted strength training program designed by and Emerge coach.
It’s your turn. Emerge.
Overcoming Chronic Back Pain
Rehab & Post Rehab
Emerge coaches and trainers are movement specialists who can design rehab and post-rehab strength programs with the goal of getting back to life quickly.
WHAT IS CORRECTIVE EXERCISE?
Put simply, corrective exercise is a specialized exercise therapy process to correct something that has gone wrong with the musculoskeletal system including:
- muscle imbalances
- strength discrepancies
- range of motion issues
The goal of corrective exercise, essentially, is to restore movement in people who have certain physical hindrances such as lower back pain or shoulder pain.
WHAT MAKES EMERGE DIFFERENT WHEN IT COMES TO CORRECTIVE EXERCISE?
Our process takes traditional corrective exercise a step further because we focus on the sustainability of our clients. If the changes you make with your corrective exercises aren’t sustainable, it isn’t corrective exercise. It’s Advil.
Advil makes you feel good, which is hard to argue with, but for a limited amount of time.
The downside to this? Have you ever had a back or knee issue that you masked with Advil, and then proceeded to squat or deadlift on those joints? It usually ends up bad. So, you didn’t correct anything, you made it worse.
Overcoming Chronic Pain
An Emerge coach can develop a targeted strength program for nagging pain, including:
1) Back
2) Knees
3) Shoulders
Very often, significant relief can be found and sustained with targeted strength and mobility training.
OUR PROCESS: TARGETED STRENGTH AND MOBILITY TRAINING
A certified Corrective Exercise Specialist at Emerge will assess your balance, posture, core functionality, flexibility, and other movement patterns. This will allow them to identify the weak or inhibited muscles that are contributing to your pain and develop a specific strength program to fix the issue. With continuous training, the changes in the body as a result of corrective exercise will be measurable and sustainable.
It’s your turn. Emerge.
