About Christopher Kaster
Chris grew up in upstate New York, graduating high school in 2000. He graduated from Misericordia University in Pennsylvania in 2005 with a master’s degree in physical therapy and a bachelor’s in health sciences. After completing a year of clinical experience he obtained his doctorate of physical therapy, from the same institution, while working full time. After college, Chris moved to New York City where he quickly recognized that while traditional physical therapy works well for some conditions, a large percentage of patients require specialized manual therapy to achieve their full level of function. He then began the process to become a Certified Functional Manual Therapist through the Institute of Physical Art. He completed this certification, with honors, in 2013. Since then, Chris has furthered his learning by receiving advanced training in cranial mobilization, visceral mobilization and brain injury/concussion management. His main focus has become manual physical therapy combined with a customized home exercise program. He treats all areas of the body including the head, neck, jaw, upper back, shoulder, low back, hips, knees, feet, hands, and viscera (organs and their surrounding fascia/connective tissue). He has worked extensively with car accidents/trauma patients, military and sports injuries, the running population as well as with dizziness/head injuries and concussion patients. Outside the clinic Chris enjoys hiking, running, mountain biking, snowboarding and exploring Colorado with his family.
