Sports Therapy and Performance Osteopathy
Integrating Movement Science, Osteopathic Precision, and Human Performance
At Athlete Rise, recovery isn’t the finish line — it’s the foundation for your next level of performance.
Our unique blend of Sports Physical Therapy and Performance Osteopathy restores balance, enhances resilience, and optimizes the way your body moves, performs, and adapts under pressure.
Manual Therapy
Grounded in the Teachings of Guy Voyer, DO
Our founder, Dr. Robert Arata, trained extensively under world-renowned osteopath Guy Voyer, DO — creator of the Soma Training, Somatherapy, and ELDOA systems.
This education shapes every treatment and movement strategy at Athlete Rise, ensuring each session honors the body’s intricate design and self-healing potential.
Somatherapy: Manual Medicine for Long-Term Change
Somatherapy is a precise osteopathic method combining myofascial normalization, osteopathic pumping, and joint decompression.
Through these hands-on techniques, we restore fluid motion, improve circulation, and recalibrate the fascial system — addressing the root cause rather than the symptom.
Performance Osteopathy
Our Performance Osteopathy model integrates manual therapy with movement re-education to create lasting change. Each session is customized to enhance structural alignment, joint integrity, and the flow of mechanical tension throughout the body’s global chains.
Performance Systems
The Science of Biotensegrity
We view the body through the lens of biotensegrity — the balance of tension and compression that gives every structure its integrity.
By working with this principle, we identify dysfunction across the entire kinetic chain and correct imbalances at their source, resulting in smoother movement and improved performance under athletic stress.
Soma Training: Intelligent Movement for Performance
Soma Training bridges the gap between rehabilitation and elite performance. These exercises build strength, mobility, and postural awareness across all planes of motion.
The result is an adaptable, injury-resistant athlete capable of maintaining power, coordination, and stability under dynamic load.
ELDOA: Postural Decompression & Longevity
ELDOA (Étirements Longitudinaux avec Decoaptation Ostéo-Articulaire) uses specific postural positions to decompress joints and create space in the spine.
By improving hydration, circulation, and joint alignment, ELDOA enhances recovery, reduces pain, and promotes longevity — the perfect link between therapy, training, and sustained athletic health.
