Who We Are

ABOUT MONADNOCK PHYSIO

OUR STORY DEFINES OUR PRACTICE

Hi. My name is Evan Knowlton, the Monadnock Area’s premier Physical Therapist.

I have been serving Southern New Hampshire and Vermont since 2017.

I am loving life in the Monadnock area, with my wife, Kara and our little dog, Lucy. We met during our undergraduate studies at Springfield College in Springfield, Massachusetts.

Kara came to this area to attend graduate school at Antioch University and now works locally after earning her Masters in Dance and Movement Therapy. After earning my Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2017, I jumped at the chance to join her in Keene.

I enjoy taking advantage of the local resources and activities as an avid snowboarder, golfer, and farmers market visitor.

As a Physical Therapist and Physiotherapist, my practice offers the most comprehensive, innovative, and personalized care to every client.

You always get the time and attention you deserve, to help you understand why your body says “ouch” and what can be done to restore your to wellness.

The body says “ouch” when it doesn’t feel safe. My goal is to figure out why your body with all of its pieces, (bones, muscles, joints, nerves, organs) is sounding the danger alarm and target that with treatment to turn off the alarm and restore the green light for pain free movement, health, and wellness.

My path

Broken Toes & Snowboarding Adventures

I know what is is like to recover from injury. My path to becoming the physical therapist I am today involves several personal injury stories.

It all started as a child, when I sustained a string of strange orthopedic injuries – an elbow, a big toe, a broken wrist. They each involved some post healing rehabilitation and I always enjoyed the time spent at the clinic as a patient. I probably wouldn’t have labeled it as enjoyable at the time, but as I reflect back, I realize I was drawn to the feel of the profession, the hands on work, the application of science and biology – I’m somewhat of a science nerd – and the care and compassion that was present in the work. These are two core values that I always strive to provide today, with my patient.

When it came time to make a career choice at the end of high school, I only entertained one option.

Which leads into the second half of my story. During graduate school, I sustained two shoulder injuries that required corrective surgery. In order to get the care I needed, I had to take time away from school to heal and recover. This was the best choice I ever made!

During this time I experienced, first hand, what surgery recovery feels like. This also gave me time to explore aspects of the physical therapy world through continuing education and some very wise colleagues.

Choosing to become a Physical Therapist is the best decision I have every made and I am excited to offer Monadnock Physio, LLC to my clients, so I can help each one maximize they way they live, move, and find comfort in their body.

“I understand what is possible with the human body and have spent the start of my career continuing to chase that passion with education and maximizing every patient encounter to learn and improve.”

“Being a massage therapist I know the importance of the mind body connection. I have experienced through multiple surgeries the disconnect in connective tissue and muscle memory. What once functioned automatically is disrupted and lost. Evan Knowlton PT has given me with his knowledge, experience, techniques and skills a chance for healing. ”
