Mike founded Solidify for one sole purpose. Traditional thinking about Physical Therapy and Personal Training is not enough to implement high level biomechanical principles into a healthy business. Mike has taken concepts through the Postural Restoration Institute©, Rethinking the Big Patterns, Pain Neuroscience Education, and many more and applied these concepts to help thousands of clients. Currently, Mike owns and operates an Out of Network Physical Therapy and Personal Training practice Divergence PT and Wellness in Wellesley Massachusetts. Over the course of his career, Mike has become frustrated with the lack of cohesion between understanding very complex clinical concepts, and communicating those concepts to the people who need them the most, clients in pain.
Mike DeMille received his Doctor of Physical Therapy at Springfield College. He is Postural Restoration Certified, and is also a Strength and Conditioning Coach (CSCS). Mike’s main goal is to help his clients achieve their pain and exercise related goals. While playing baseball at Springfield, Mike was introduced to the Postural Restoration Institute (PRI) to improve his health and performance as a pitcher. It was this introduction that shaped and inspired Mike’s career in Physical Therapy.
About Your Coaches
Tyler is a Cash-Based Physical Therapist in Eugene, OR and met Mike when they were in PT school at Springfield College. Tyler is Postural Restoration Certified (PRC) and has taken many other continuing education courses such as SFMA, FRC, RTBP 2, Stress, Movement, and Pain, and many more. Tyler owns and is the sole PT at Convergence Physical Therapy where he specializes in high performance rehab working with team sport athletes, lifters, Crossfitters, and MMA/combat sport athletes. He also treats complex pain and TMJ cases using PRI techniques.
Tyler was frustrated with the model of Physical Therapy as it is taught in school. From the time he was an intern at Tactical Strength and Conditioning in college, he was looking at functional relationships of the whole body and how each system affected each other. It wasn't until he found concepts taught in PRI that he began to connect the dots and is now able to treat a wide variety of pain and injuries that had been previously failed by a traditional model of rehabilitation.
Tyler was a volleyball player in college, but his athletic career was derailed by chronic low back pain. He was able to overcome this pain using PRI concepts after chiropractic manipulation, traditional manual therapy and exercise, and other treatments didn't change his pain. He has been hooked on learning about the different systems of the human body ever since and has been taking multiple PRI courses a year from his introduction in 2014 until now.
