Today we talk to Hayden Hilke, Doctor of Physical Therapy and owner of Peak PT. We jump back in to concussions, why we should do pre-concussion testing and who should have it – kids who downhill ski, play hockey and football for sure, but it would be a good idea for all the mountain bikers out there. We talk about Watershed Jackson, the non-profit working with concussion testing in our valley, as well as her new venture, Kilter PT and Sports Performance which will be going in to the new sports complex south of town.
Hayden Hilke graduated from Furman University in 1997 with a BA in Sociology. She then moved to Jackson, Wyoming for two years prior to returning to South Carolina, where she earned her MSR, PT degree in 2003 from the Medical University of South Carolina. She earned a transitional Doctorate in Physical Therapy degree in 2009 from AT Still University in Arizona. After working in various patient settings in and out of Jackson, she opened Peak Physical Therapy, an outpatient orthopedic physical therapy clinic, in Wilson, WY. Due to her own personal experience with a back injury, and seeing a lack of resources and accessibility in Jackson, she started Watershed Jackson, a non-profit, that benefits athletes with traumatic brain and spinal cord injury. Since then, she has attended numerous courses and seminars, which specialize in progressive education and rehabilitation in current concussion management. She has partnered with several local youth and adult sport teams to help provide optimal pre- and post-concussion screening and rehabilitation. Through both her business and her non-profit, Hayden has helped educate the Jackson community on traumatic brain management, and worked to foster a more accessible local environment.
