Michael Bidwell

Clinic Director
PTA, ATC, CSCS, FAFS, CWcHP

Mike is a Physical Therapist Assistant and Clinic Director at Integrated Rehabilitation Services in Vernon, CT. He has always had a passion for sports and the active lifestyle they represent and began his career as an Athletic Trainer, caring for athletes at the high school and collegiate levels.  As a clinician, he found that he enjoyed helping active-minded patients develop an appreciation of how training and rehabilitation can impact their performance and recovery. His pursuit of learning led him to enter a forty-week fellowship in applied functional science, which gave him a much deeper understanding of human biomechanics.  He passionately shares this knowledge to both treat and empower his patients and staff to create better movement patterns to improve their physical well-being.
