Douglas Geiger Jr., PT

In 2021, I fulfilled a long-cherished dream: earning my doctorate in physical therapy. It is the capstone of more than 12 years of professional practice and continued study. \n I am certified as a clinical specialist in orthopedics by the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties and as a clinical instructor by the American Physical Therapy Association. \n I am also certified as a trigger point/dry needling therapist by the Certification Board of Myofascial Trigger Point Therapists. I use this innovative therapy to treat pain caused by sensitive patches of muscle tissue known as trigger points. Dry needling uses a thin needle to release these trigger points and relieve pain. It has helped many of my patients. \n I've learned during my career to always keep the whole person in mind when determining the best possible care. My goal is to make patients feel at ease during treatment. But I also aim to empower them to take responsibility for their care, as well. I do not fix people but rather guide patients through the process of improving themselves. \n I'm a North Carolina native and have been married since 2009. Our household includes two boys. When I get the time, I enjoy crocheting, making handicrafts and training for half-marathons.

I began my career as a physical therapist in 1996 after graduating from the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse and later completed my transitional doctorate in physical therapy. I am fellowship-trained by the American Academy of Orthopaedic Manual Physical Therapists, with a focus on the spine, and hold a master's degree in business administration. \n In addition to being a physical therapist, I am also a certified orthopedic manual therapist and certified athletic trainer. The focus of my work includes young and experienced athletes, from the amateur to professional level in a variety of sports. \n A key to success in physical therapy is getting to the source of the patient's issue. This requires a strong partnership with the patient, as well as critical-thinking and problem-solving skills on my part. This is often like solving a puzzle. With the skills and experience that I have gained over the years, I can often make an immediate impact on how someone feels. This is what keeps me interested in physical therapy: helping people to feel better. \n The other way I grow and develop in my field is through continuing my education. Over the years, I've completed course work in manual/manipulative therapy, trigger point dry needling, functional movement assessment and corrective exercise. I also guest lecture at Vanderbilt University and serve an adjunct instructor at Winston-Salem State University. \n In my spare time, I enjoy home improvement, woodworking, riding my bike and staying fit.
