PHYSICAL THERAPY
AND
SPORTS PERFORMANCE
Built for Performance. Backed by Science. Focused on You.
At PJA Fitness, we help people move better, feel stronger, and perform at their best — whether you're an athlete, active adult, or simply committed to living a healthier life.
We blend physical therapy, performance training, and fitness to provide personalized, 1-on-1 care that’s driven by your goals — not insurance limits or generic plans.
Performance isn’t just for athletes. We also work with older adults managing arthritis or recovering from joint replacements, helping them stay strong, mobile, and independent. You don’t need a jersey to be treated like an athlete — just a desire to live life fully.
Founded by Dr. Preston Arnold, a Doctor of Physical Therapy and former collegiate athlete, PJA Fitness was built to deliver care that combines science, movement, and purpose — at every age and every stage.

At PJA Fitness, we provide personalized, physician-supported care whether you're recovering from surgery, bouncing back from a game, or training to reach peak performance. Our process ensures every client gets the right treatment — at the right time — with clarity and confidence.
Initial Evaluation
Every client begins with a 1-on-1 evaluation performed by Dr. Preston Arnold, a licensed Doctor of Physical Therapy. This includes a full movement assessment, orthopedic screening, and a conversation about your goals and history — whether it’s post-op rehab, performance training, or recovery.
Determine the Best Path Forward
Based on your evaluation, we guide you down the appropriate care pathway:
Injury or Post-Surgical Case (e.g., TKA, THA, ACL Repair, Meniscus Surgery)
→ If you're post-operative or present with a new injury, we’ll coordinate with your physician or surgeon for medical clearance and ensure your care follows best practice protocols.
Medical Concern Needing Diagnosis
→ If symptoms suggest a need for diagnosis or imaging, we’ll refer you to a trusted physician in our network for further evaluation before beginning treatment.
Wellness & Performance Clients (No Injury)
→ If you’re not injured and simply want to recover from activity, improve mobility, or enhance performance, we can begin immediately under our wellness and performance-based model.
How Does This Work?
Physician-Backed, Performance-Focused
We work alongside referring physicians, surgeons, and healthcare providers to ensure every client receives safe, effective, and goal-oriented care. Communication stays open — so your progress is smooth from diagnosis through full return to sport or lifestyle.

Post-operative rehabilitation
Return-to-sport or return-to-activity progression
Manual therapy

Strength training, performance development & recovery optimization
The Right Care, the Right Way
At PJA Fitness, you're not just another patient in a high-volume clinic. You're treated like an athlete — with attention to detail, performance goals in mind, and a team that works together for your success.
Hi, l'm Preston Arnold, Doctor of Physical Therapy and founder of PJA Fitness.
My journey into physical therapy started with personal experience. As a collegiate baseball player, I suffered an injury while unknowingly doing the wrong workouts
without proper guidance. That setback lit a fire in me to learn how the body really works - and how to train, recover, and perform the right way.
Today, I bring that same passion into my work with athletes, active adults, and anyone striving to move and feel better. I'm not just a coach on the sidelines — I practice what l preach. I train regularly, stay active, and continue to challenge myself through strength training and running. I believe movement is medicine - and I live that out every day.
Outside of work, I'm newly married, guided by my Christian faith, and proud to be a family-first kind of guy (with a couple of awesome dogs, too). That mindset shapes how I run this business - I want every client to feel like part
of the PJA Fitness family.
At PJA Fitness, I provide one-on-one, data-driven physical therapy and performance care designed to meet you where you are — and help you get where you want to go.
