Shenandoah Physical Therapy Graduate’s Clinic Offers Education‑Driven Rehab by a Veteran‑Owned Team

Ryan Griffiths ’14 and wife, Alicia, co-founded Pursue Movement Strength & Mobility Development in Peterborough, New Hampshire with a clear mission: bridge the gap between injury rehabilitation and strength training through education.

“Our goal is to prevent injuries where we can and rehab those we can’t,” Ryan said in an April 14, 2026 article in the Monadnock Ledger-Transcript. “We want to catch an issue before it’s too far gone.”

Ryan, an Army veteran and Doctor of Physical Therapy graduate from Shenandoah, focuses on teaching clients how their bodies work — how bones, muscles, tendons, and ligaments move together — so they can stay healthy long after therapy ends. Pursue Movement offers physical therapy, the Graston Technique, dry needling, and strength and conditioning, with clients receiving access to their HIPAA‑protected records and imaging.

The business began as a mobile service in early 2025 before expanding into a full location. Ryan also brings his educational approach into local schools, teaching students the importance of stretching, warming up, and cooling down.

Alicia leads marketing and outreach, encouraging community programs and helping connect Ryan with clients. The couple, who met as kids in Amherst, New Hampshire, built Pursue Movement on a foundation of service, experience, and a shared commitment to helping people understand their bodies and move with confidence.
