Welcome

Located in the heart of Puget Sound, Pushing Boundaries is Washington's only intensive exercise therapy center focused on regaining function in those paralyzed due to illness, injury, or other neurological disorders. Pushing Boundaries is a non profit, 501 (c) (3) organization.

Whether your injury is new or you've had it for years, starting an intensive exercise program now can avoid or reverse "learned non-use" in affected muscle groups. Muscles atrophy and neural circuits turn off with disuse. Building and maintaining muscle mass keeps tissues in paralyzed limbs healthy. Our goal is to help you achieve an optimum quality of life through exercise.

Our Services Include:

Client Therapy Services

The Client Therapy Team exists to provide intensive exercise to people who are paralyzed due to illness or injury. Staffed by highly trained, nationally certified Exercise Therapists, the Client Therapy Team evaluates clientele, designs outcome specific programs, and implements those programs specific to each client’s goals.

Support Services

The Support Service Program has been created to address all issues clients and their families have had concerning the changes in life they are now facing. Clients have, since our inception in 2005, discussed the topics that they “wish they would have known” when they first were injured/diagnosed. The mission of this program is to make the transition to this new situation as seamless and easy as possible.

We are in the process of consolidating a comprehensive amount of information that is client driven and pertinent to living in our region. Topics will include (but are not limited to) healthcare, housing issues, travel information, recreation opportunities, finance management, support group information and research.

Community Outreach and Education Services

The COES Team has been developed to inform, encourage and engage the community to become involved with Pushing Boundaries, its mission and the clients we serve. If you or someone you know would like to learn more about what we do or how to get involved, This is a perfect place to start. Please contact us for more information.

Pushing Boundaries is a community of people working together toward the same mission: providing intensive exercise therapy that strengthens and supports people living with paralysis, and their families, to maximize health and improve quality of life.

In the same way, we must all work together to realize our envisioned future: to be the Pacific NW's premier intensive exercise therapy center that will be supported by an endowment, specialized staff and strategic partnerships.
