Adam Powell is from Newport News, Virginia. He came to Richmond, Virginia in 1999 to attend Virginia Commonwealth University where he fell in love with the city and with a beautiful girl named Erin.  She would soon become his wife and the mother of his two amazing daughters, Jane and Ellie.

Adam received his bachelor of science degree from VCU and then graduated from the VCU Medical College of Virginia School of Physical Therapy in 2007. Adam joined Rehab Plus Associates in 2007, having interned there as a student, and since then has transitioned with the company through acquisitions to ultimately work for Pivot Physical Therapy starting in 2017.

He is an active member of the Virginia Physical Therapy Association and American Physical Therapy Association, including a membership in the orthopedics section. He became a board-certified orthopedic clinical specialist in 2016. He then obtained his certification in orthopedic manual therapy in 2019.

He has many years of diverse orthopedic physical therapy experience and enjoys treating varied orthopedic conditions including issues of the spine, shoulders, elbows, hips, knees and ankles as well as generalized balance issues / lower extremity weakness and post surgical orthopedic conditions.

His approach to patient care combines patient education with hands on manual therapy and neuromuscular reeducation to help promote improved mobility and motor control, ultimately resulting in improved function with decreased pain.

He lives locally in the North Chesterfield area and enjoys spending time outdoors with his family as well as playing the drums with his band WKNDR.

Adam holds a direct access certification and is available to evaluate and treat patients without a prescription from a physician, so just give him a call.
