Services
Silvia Sorensen, PT, DPT has been providing physical therapy services in Fort Collins since 1981. She began her career locally working with a local orthopedic surgeon, assisting him with presentations to physicians on the diagnosis and treatment of common orthopedic conditions. With their encouragement, she opened Fort Collins Physical Therapy and Sports Center in 1984, which was the only privately owned physical therapy practice in Fort Collins.
At Fort Collins Physical Therapy and Sports Center, our goal is to treat the whole person using a number of different approaches, including injury and pain treatment, prevention, and recovery. Depending on your injury or condition, your treatment plan may include Class IV Laser Therapy, physical therapy, acupuncture, massage therapy, cupping, ALINE Performance, and yoga/thai massage.
The Aspen Class IV, 20-watt laser system has three FDA clearances. It caters to all your needs from head to toe with amazing immediate and proven results in regenerating tissue while treating pain and inflammation. This treatment is non-invasive and more cost-effective than stem cells or PRPs. Safe, warm laser light penetrates deeply to help reduce inflammation, speed healing, and relieve pain.
Our goal at Fort Collins Physical Therapy and Sports Center is to help our patients improve function and manage pain, whether their restrictions or condition are related to injury or illness. We work with our patients in all stages of rehabilitation and empower them to overcome their pain and disability and return to their active lives.
ALINE's Foot Suspension System is a new class of foot care system. ALINE's patented bFAST, Foot Activated Technology puts the foot in control, allowing ankles and knees to align themselves.

I'm extremely grateful that I discovered Fort Collins Physical Therapy to help me with my shoulder issue. Silvia diagnosed my shoulder impingement and successfully corrected the issue with a combination of laser therapy and instructing me on the proper stretches to alleviate the stiffness and aches over time. The laser therapy was amazing and really helped to break up the scar tissue and promoted healing during my recovery. Over the course of about two months, seeing her once a week, I can now say my shoulder feels better than ever and it's performing amazing in the gym again! I highly recommend

Silvia and her Aspen Laser Treatments are truly amazing!! I had my first appointment one week ago. I have been recovering from an elbow surgery and had lots of scar tissue. It was causing me to be unable to straighten my arm. In one week, I can now fully extend my arm. The treatments break up the scar tissue and reduce pain! My only regret is that I didn’t go to Silvia prior to having my surgery. She believes she could’ve avoided the surgery with these treatments and have a better situation overall! I have no doubt that she is right!!

I came here terminally ill, needing some physical therapy for a ripping muscle basically for quality of life, back in a wheelchair and headed downhill. Three months later, I am actively healing instead, things that have been broken and part of my prognosis are getting better instead and it has given me back a life I haven't been able to do in years! I haven't been in a wheelchair since my first visit! Sylvia is amazing, her staff is incredible and they are knowledgeable and super helpful to get a body back in working order. I can't say enough good things :)

Fantastic experience overall. Fort Collins Physical Therapy has a high level of expertise and knowledge and are transparent through the process. I had lingering knee and calf issues for almost a year that they worked with me to fix in a very short period of time. I’ll be returning if I have any other issues down the road!

I was out for a total of 2 months due to pain in my knee. Classified as "runners knee".
Silvia was an incredible resource who helped navigate my injury and helped me come up with a cross training plan until my race on May 15th.
Silvia was also very accommodating with my schedule, knowing that I was driving from a far distance.
I highly recommend Silvia's practice to runners that have struggled resolving stubborn injuries. Thank you Silvia for helping me get back to running in 2 months and getting me back to competition in a safe and effective manner!

I came to FCTP in pain from an injury. I had let it go a little longer than I should have, but Silvia and the staff took to the time to diagnose the issue properly, work on a treatment plan and provide me with techniques between appointments that would help get me back to 100%. It was a great experience. Everyone was helpful, knowledgeable and committed to getting me through to wellness as soon as possible. I would definitely recommend them and go to them again if the need ever arose!
