Ryan Summitt is a Doctor of Physical Therapy who uses manual therapy and corrective exercise to reduce pain and restore function — with one-on-one care at every visit in Zionsville and Carmel, Indiana.
Ryan Summitt, PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS, is a physical therapist who helps people reduce pain, recover from injury, and get back to the activities they love. Every visit is one-on-one with Ryan — combining hands-on manual therapy with targeted corrective exercise to address both the symptoms and the movement patterns behind them.
As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, Board-Certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist (OCS), and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS), Ryan brings a rare blend of clinical and performance expertise. For more than 12 years, he has helped active people bridge the gap between rehabilitation and fitness, guiding them from injury recovery back to full strength with confidence.
Whether you’re dealing with a nagging ache, recovering from an injury, or trying to move and perform better, Ryan’s approach is evidence-based, individualized, and focused on long-term results — not just short-term relief.
Outside the clinic, Ryan enjoys spending time with his wife and three children, caring for their two Labrador Retrievers, and pursuing his own athletic challenges — from trail races and a Grand Canyon Rim-to-Rim-to-Rim crossing to HYROX competitions and improving his golf game.
Every session is one-on-one with Ryan and built around your goals. Treatment combines the services below based on what your body needs.
A thorough evaluation of how you move, followed by an individualized plan of hands-on treatment and corrective exercise to reduce pain, restore mobility, and rebuild strength.
Hands-on manual therapy, including cupping, to release tight, restricted tissue, ease muscle tension, and improve mobility so you can move more freely and get more out of your exercise program.
Thin, sterile needles are used to target trigger points and tight bands of muscle, helping to decrease pain, reduce muscle tension, and restore normal movement.

You can submit it to your insurer for possible out-of-network reimbursement, though reimbursement is not guaranteed. We recommend calling your insurance company ahead of time to ask about your out-of-network physical therapy benefits.
