We are a family-owned physical therapy practice in Park Ridge, NJ in northern Bergen County. Specializing in sports medicine and orthopedics, we pride ourselves on providing goal-driven, hands-on, individualized care to get you back to what you love to do.
We recognize that medicine has changed over the years. Physical Therapists are under pressure to see more people in less time, and many family-owned PT practices have disappeared as larger corporate clinics expand. In the process, compassionate, personalized care has become harder to find—care where you feel heard, valued, and treated as an individual with your own goals.
Altius is a family-run physical therapy clinic. We’re locally owned and genuinely invested in the well-being of our community—our friends, our neighbors, and the people we see every day. We aren’t your typical PT clinic, and we don’t look, feel, or operate like one. When you walk through our door, you’ll be welcomed into a friendly, comfortable, high-energy space where you’re treated like family. We work hard to set ourselves apart with an exceptional standard of care that stays accessible, enjoyable and highly effective.
Dr. Evan Bracconeri is the founder and owner of Altius Physical Therapy. He graduated summa cum laude from the University at Buffalo in 2008 and went on to attend Columbia University, where he received his Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2012. During his time at Columbia, Evan completed rotations in Orthopedics and Sports Medicine, with a special emphasis on the endurance athlete.
New Jersey Law allows potential clients to seek treatment from a physical therapist without a referral for up to thirty days (except Medicare).
One of the most common questions we hear from patients recovering from tendinopathies—like shoulder, elbow, hip, knee, or Achilles tendon pain—is: “Should I stop if it hurts?”
Physical therapy is a well established and effective means for recovery but did you know there is a growing body of evidence for “PreHab”? Prehab is a course of therapy prior to a surgical procedure that helps improve surgical outcomes.
Our new office will be open to patients on January 2nd, 2023
