Meet Dr. Kira Markus, PT
Cert-DN, Cert-Pelvic, CF-L1, Cert-CMFA
I am a passionate orthopedic and pelvic health Physical Therapist as well as a crossfit and Jiu Jitsu athlete. As a former coach and current competitor, I understand what your body needs for the crazy sports we do.
On The Roll Physical Therapy was born after I started Jiu Jitsu in early 2021. I saw a huge need for physical therapy, rehab, and prehab in our community. In an effort to answer as many people’s questions as possible, I started producing online content for FAQs and doing in person workshops at local gyms. From there my business was born and I’ve been working to grow ever since to be able to help as many people as possible!
Welcome, I’m glad you’re here!
READY TO ROLL?
If traditional Physical Therapy (PT) has failed you, or you are not sure what PT even is, you’re in the right place! I've seen it time and time again where patients are failed by the healthcare system either from lack of time, poor quality care, or worse yet a doctor telling you to just quit your sport. I help people to overcome their pain, to learn to move better, and to confidently take their life and health back. I’m passionate about 1-1 care and (p)rehab. Every body is different and you’re a unique person who deserves a unique care plan. I will listen to you and work with you to come up with the most effective and efficient plan for getting you to you 2.0.
My goal is to keep everyone on the mats, in the gym, and on the roll!
FROM OUR CLIENTS
Kira efficiently got me back to being at my peak physically and mentally. Very knowledgeable, understanding, and pushes you slowly to get where you need to be without over doing it.

If you’ve been struggling with not participating in life, lifting, or sex because of fear, pain, or embarrassment around peeing, pooping, or anything pelvis related - let’s talk. You don’t have to live like that anymore!
This includes pregnancy and postpartum rehabilitation, bladder and bowel concerns, pelvic pain, and return to exercise.
I also offer pelvic floor dry needling which can be a powerful tool to alleviate most pelvic floor symptoms.

If you have any areas of tight or irritated muscles or joints - dry needling can help! It’s the application of thin, solid needles into a muscle's trigger or pain points to alleviate pain and improve movement by stimulating a healing response.
Yes even if you’re scared of needles you can handle dry needling, the needles I use are lubricated so you barely feel a thing!

If you’re struggling with lingering pain or injury and can’t seem to move past it, but want to learn how to deal with the mental and emotional side of injury in a self paced course - the mini course is for you!

Resilience: Overcoming the Mental & Emotional Side of Injury
Injury recovery is about more than just healing your body. Pain, fear, frustration, and uncertainty can all influence how you move, think, and approach recovery.
Resilience is a self-paced course designed to help you better understand pain, rebuild confidence, and develop a healthier relationship with movement. Through practical lessons on pain neuroscience, realistic goal setting, self-talk, recognizing progress, and gradually returning to challenging activities, you'll learn tools to navigate the ups and downs of recovery.
Whether you're dealing with a lingering injury or struggling with the mental side of getting back to the activities you love, this course will help you approach recovery with greater understanding, confidence, and resilience.
Includes six video lessons and a downloadable workbook.
