Meet The clinic Founder
Todd Houghton
Todd Houghton is a Physical Therapist, Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist, Peak Performance Mindset Coach, and lifelong student of human performance. His passion lies in helping people understand how the mind and body work together to create lasting health, resilience, and long term success.
His journey into physical therapy began after a serious ski accident at the age of 15. Like many people facing an injury, Todd experienced the frustration, uncertainty, and limitations that come with being unable to participate in the activities you love. That experience sparked a lifelong commitment to understanding the healing process and finding better ways to help people recover.
Since then, Todd has dedicated decades to advancing his education, refining his clinical skills, and building a practice centered around helping people achieve meaningful and lasting results. His philosophy extends far beyond simply helping someone feel better. He believes true recovery involves creating a stronger, healthier, and more capable version of oneself, one that can continue to thrive for years to come.
Throughout his career, Todd noticed a common challenge in healthcare. Many individuals were doing everything they were told to do, yet still struggling to achieve the outcomes they wanted. Too often, treatment focused on managing symptoms rather than identifying and addressing the underlying cause of the problem. Patients were frequently encouraged to rest, prescribed medications, or directed toward invasive procedures without receiving a clear understanding of what was actually preventing them from healing.
Determined to provide a better solution, Todd founded Houghton Physical Therapy with a different vision.
At Houghton Physical Therapy, every patient receives personalized, one on one care from a licensed therapist. The clinic is built around taking the time to understand each individual’s goals, lifestyle, and challenges in order to create a treatment plan tailored to their specific needs. Patients are never rushed through appointments or passed from provider to provider.
Todd and his team combine hands on physical therapy with advanced regenerative technologies, including Shockwave Therapy, EMTT, and neuromodulation. These innovative approaches are designed to support the body’s natural healing processes while helping patients recover more efficiently and effectively.
However, what truly sets Todd apart is his belief that healing is about more than physical treatment alone. He understands that mindset, daily habits, movement patterns, and long term lifestyle choices all play an important role in recovery and performance. This holistic approach allows patients to not only overcome their current challenges but also develop the tools needed to maintain their results long after treatment has ended.
One of Todd’s greatest sources of pride is the culture he has built within the clinic. Houghton Physical Therapy is a place where patients and team members alike are encouraged to grow, learn, and continually pursue their potential. The environment is designed to be supportive, educational, and empowering.
While many people initially seek care because they want relief from pain or limitations, Todd’s goal is to help them discover what is possible beyond those challenges. Whether that means returning to the gym, getting back on the golf course, competing in sports, or simply enjoying daily life with greater confidence, his mission remains the same.
Todd believes that when people are given the right tools, the right guidance, and the right environment, they can achieve far more than they ever imagined and create a stronger, healthier future for themselves.
