Keith Geissler, MPT
Keith Geissler originally graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Sport Management. Having worked for several years in Health Club and Resort Management he decided return to school to pursue a more challenging career in physical therapy, receiving his Masters in Physical Therapy degree from Ithaca College in 1996, and has been specializing in orthopedics since that time.

Having worked in various clinical settings ranging from home health to hospital inpatient care he always felt like he could do more for his patients if he had more time to allocate to them during each visit. This desire to provide a higher level of quality care prompted him to start Personalized PT, PC in the fall of 2000.

Keith continues to expand his knowledge of treating orthopaedic injuries by studying osteopathic techniques including Muscle Energy, Myofascial Release, and Positional Release Therapy. He has a special interest in treating musculoskeletal disorders of the spine.

Building on his degree in Sport Management, Keith launched Body Links in 2005, a program designed to bring sport specific performance enhancement and injury prevention to recreational golfers, runners, and bikers.

"Body Links allows us to go from simply helping a patient get well to helping them get better.  We have developed very specialized programs for performance enhancement and injury prevention for golfers all the way to programs to enhance your computing skills through proper ergonomics. It is immensely satisfying to see someone get back to doing what they love, and to see them doing it better than they were able to before an injury."  --KG, MPT
