Schedule a 15 Minute Call with ZachLess noise, more clarity.
There's a lot of noise right now: surgeons, graft types, physical therapists, timelines. When you're ready, I'll help you sort through it. I'll explain your options in plain language, help you think through how to choose a surgeon and physical therapist, and give you the questions to bring to your appointments, so you walk in prepared and make decisions with your surgeon and your family.

Maybe progress feels slow. Maybe confidence is dipping, or you wish someone were checking in more often. That's common, and it's often when clients reach out to me.

Do I still need to see a physical therapist?
Yes. The Embodi³ program works alongside your physical therapist and your surgeon. Most of our clients complete their PT visits and their sessions with us in the same week. If your surgeon and PT have a protocol in place, we ask that you share it with us so we can build a plan around it.
Is it safe to start right after surgery?
Every step stays within your surgeon's guidelines and your PT's protocol. In the first weeks, the work is gentle: getting the knee straight and getting the quad to turn back on. If your surgeon or PT has questions about what we do, we're happy to talk with them.
Can I start before surgery?
Absolutely. Starting before surgery is one of the best times to start. Athletes who go into surgery with a quiet, straight knee and a quad that fires well tend to have an easier first few weeks after. Working towards these goals before surgery is commonly called "prehab."
Can an ACL tear heal without surgery?
There are times when it may make sense to try recovering non-surgically before committing to surgery. That's a conversation we highly recommend having with your surgeon. We coach athletes on both paths and will be happy to assist however we can.
How does coaching work if Zach isn't in the room?
You'll utilize the direct current e-stim device at home, and Zach is on a live video call for every coached session. He watches every rep and cues as you go. On the other days, you'll follow a daily plan built for your stage of recovery.
What happens after joining the waitlist?
Upon joining the waitlist, you will get the chance to schedule a call with a member of our team. During the call, we will take time to understand your goals for the program, any scheduling requirements, and determine the best time frame to start your Embodi³ program.
Does insurance cover it?
No. Embodi³ is a coaching program, rather than medical service, so it cannot be billed through insurance. Zach will go over the costs associated with the program on the call, before the program starts.
