Dr. Ian Nay, PT, DPT, OCS

Dr. Ian Nay is originally from the warm desert of Southern California where he became a competitive multi-sport athlete including soccer, basketball, and baseball. It was a soccer injury that led him to the world of physical therapy and spurred his interest to begin shadowing a physical therapist while still in high school. Ian attended Cal Poly San Luis Obispo where he received his Bachelor’s with Magna Cum Laude Honors in Kinesiology and then moved to Colorado. He achieved his Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Regis University and Board Certification in Orthopedics from the American Board of Physical Therapy Specialties. Since then, he has gained post-graduate certifications in Blood Flow Restriction therapy, Level 1 and 2 Functional Dry Needling, spinal manipulation, and extensive training through the Institute of Clinical Excellence (ICE). Ian is also a member of the American Physical Therapy Association and has served as a Colorado State Delegate at the House of Delegates in Washington, D.C.

From his background in personal training, team sports, return-to-sport rehab, running, powerlifting, Olympic weightlifting, and CrossFit, Ian believes that a fitness-forward approach to rehabilitation is necessary to return to the activities that you love to do. He enjoys treating all orthopedic conditions with a specialization in neck and low back pain, headaches, TMJ disorders, shoulder pain, hip pain, and knee pain. His treatment approach aligns well with all active individuals and especially weightlifters, runners, CrossFitters, and field sports athletes.

Outside of physical therapy, Ian enjoys spending time with his wife, daughter, and pets. Some of his
favorite activities include travelling, camping, hiking, cooking, reading, and playing golf.
