Physical therapy isn’t just about meeting a minimum standard of movement. Instead it should prepare you to move with confidence so that you can enjoy an active lifestyle without compromise.

Resilient Performance Physical Therapy works with both youth and adult clients to overcome injuries and restore function. Resilient co-founder Doug Kechijian is a local Darien dad. He’s an avid tennis player and skier and served as a Pararescueman in the Air force for 13 years during which he deployed throughout the world to provide technical rescue and emergency medical care to U.S. and allied forces. Doug received his AB in Biology from Brown University, MA in Exercise Physiology from Columbia University, and Doctor of Physical Therapy from Columbia University.

Doug works on a range of cases from post-surgical rehabilitation to performance and fitness training. The goal is to get people to overcome pain and develop “surplus strength.” That way, they can meet or exceed the physical demands of their daily life, occupation, or sport.

Each session at Resilient’s Darien location is a full hour, one-on-one with Doug. Services include:

  • Customized mobility and fitness routines for injured athletes

  • Manual Therapy (soft tissue treatment, joint manipulation, dry needling)

  • Post Surgical Rehabilitation

  • Return-To-Sport Conditioning

  • Running Analysis

  • Maintenance and Preventative Care

  • Collaborating care with other medical professionals, including physicians and other specialists (e.g. sport and skills coaches)

Resilient’s clientele includes athletes and practitioners from the NFL, NBA, MLB, Olympics, NCAA, Major League Lacrosse, law enforcement tactical teams, and military special operations forces. Doug also trained his wife to successfully summit Mount Everest in 2018.

Whether you’re an active adult, an athlete looking to take their game to the next level or someone who’s given up on activities you love, Resilient can help.

Resilient has practices in Darien, Tribeca, Flatiron District ,and Chatham, NJ.
