Invincible

Invincible We activate self healing for our health-seeking patients, by taking people on a movement journey. Every athlete wants to feel INVINCIBLE.

We provide their ENTIRE body with improved movement through manual therapy & the tools they need to continue optimal movement outside of our clinic. To feel like they can accomplish whatever they want. To become invincible, every athlete must know how to prepare their body in a way that allows them to move properly. They must use this movement to help them perform to their best ability, in whateve

r fitness/sport they choose. They also must be able to give their body TLC in order to recover properly, either from their athletic task or if an injury comes up. This is where I (Dr. Missy Albrecht) can help....

I received my Doctorate in Physical Therapy in 2011 from Mount St. Mary's College and was certified through the NSCA in 2008 as a Strength and Conditioning Coach. With a background in coaching soccer and doing personal training at all levels, she received her CrossFit Level 1 and Mobility certification, and began to coach CrossFit in 2010. I have experience working in various outpatient orthopedic clinics, as well as working with athletes on-site at CrossFit Southbay and currently at CrossFit Colfax. Additional areas of study:

- Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (trained through Graston)

- Visceral Functional Mobilization

- Rock Doc - FMT 1 & 2 2013

- Functional Movement Screen - Level 1 certified 2010

- Yoga Tune Up

- Mobility WOD - mobility certified 2010

My goal is to empower athletes with the knowledge they need to become their version of invincible, allowing them to accomplish any goals they set their minds to.

The diaphragm vacuum from the lovely 🙌

A simple way to get a deep stretch through the diaphragm and everything around it.

Here’s how to do it:

1. Arms overhead, lift into a bridge and inhale deeply
2. Hold at the top and exhale fully — then hold your breath at the bottom
3. Lower your hips slowly, arms still overhead, and hold until you can’t anymore — this is your stretch!

Looking for physical therapy in Lakewood, CO that goes beyond a traditional approach? At Invincible, our providers combine intentional movement and manual therapies to support how the diaphragm, organs, and surrounding tissues move and function together. Because when one area feels restricted, it can influence the whole system.

So much of pelvic health is about movement, adaptability, and listening to the body as a whole.’

The bladder, uterus, blood vessels, brain, tailbone, fascia — everything is connected. During pregnancy especially, the body undergoes incredible changes, and sometimes past injuries, tension patterns, or restrictions can impact how tissues move and recover.

This is why healing isn’t always just about treating one area. Sometimes the body needs support in completely different places to help restore ease, comfort, and function.

Our physical therapists in Lakewood, Colorado use gentle, hands-on manual therapy to evaluate how your body moves, adapts, and holds tension. Every treatment is individualized and guided by what your body is asking for — whether you’re navigating painful in*******se, postpartum recovery, pelvic tension, or symptoms that haven’t fully resolved with traditional internal work alone.

The body is always communicating. We just have to know how to listen. ✨

Most of us have experienced some form of impact to the head — and what we consistently feel when working the deeper structures of the body is the body holding onto a rotational tension. That tension often ties back to moments like "my head was turned when I collided with another player" or "I was looking left when I got rear-ended."

You may not consciously feel that rotation in your body — but your body remembers. And it guides our hands on exactly how to unwind that tension for optimal healing 💃🏻💃🏻

If you’ve experienced a head injury, concussion, car accident, or whiplash, lingering tension patterns may still be affecting how your body heals. Our physical therapists in Lakewood use visceral manipulation and neural therapy to help unwind these deeper patterns and restore the body’s ability to heal and adapt after trauma.

The scalp is often the first area to hold tension after impact to the head such as concussions, birth trauma, car accidents, falls, sports injuries, etc.

Gentle techniques such as scalp traction and soft tissue work can help release restrictions, improve mobility, and support blood flow through areas that often contribute to headaches, migraines, sinus pressure, and post-head trauma symptoms. This work focuses on easing tight patterns through the forehead, base of the skull, and behind the ears to help tissues move more freely and reduce tension-related discomfort.

Our physical therapists in Lakewood, Colorado use manual therapy to support headache relief, migraine symptoms, and post-concussion recovery.

Misunderstanding about the lower esophageal sphincter (LES), also known as the cardiac sphincter because of its location near the heart. The LES is part of the digestive system and is situated in the area where the esophagus, starting behind the cricoid cartilage in the throat, goes down into the stomach. Its function is to allow food contents into the stomach.

The LES can a significant factor in heartburn, a common issue at Invincible. The opening and closing of the LES is regulated by various inputs, one of which is having adequate hydrochloric acid (HCl) in the stomach.

It is often assumed that if testing hasn't been done, an individual's HCl level is too high. However, it's also possible that a low HCl level can cause heartburn if the sphincter isn't closing properly, allowing acid to "sneak up into the esophageal area". Because low HCl can prevent the LES from receiving the signal it needs to close, we suggests getting tested by your provider to actually determine if the acid production is too much or not enough, and visceral manipulation can help too!

Our physical therapists in Lakewood, Colorado use visceral manipulation to help improve the function of your lower esophageal sphincter, supporting better digestion and reducing heartburn!

The bladder isn’t just a storage organ — it’s a dynamic structure that needs mobility, elasticity, and coordinated function.

When we assess bladder function, we’re not only looking at how it interacts with surrounding tissues — we’re also looking at the integrity of the organ itself.

Using visceral manipulation techniques, our physical therapists in Lakewood, Colorado work with what we call viscoelasticity: the ability of the tissue to stretch, respond, and return to function efficiently.

Through gentle compression and decompression along lines of tension, we aim to improve both the internal and external layers of the organ — supporting better movement and physiological function.

Because optimal bladder function isn’t just about capacity — it’s about how well the system can expand, contract, and coordinate with the urethra as part of a whole.

One of the most rewarding parts of this work? Supporting other providers on their journey into it.

There’s something special about watching a provider discover the Barral work for the first time — the curiosity, the questions, the moment it all starts to click.

Dr. Missy has been mentoring since 2022 and became a teaching assistant for the Barral Institute in 2023. She mentors providers both in clinic and online. If that’s you, check the link in our bio ✨

Our physical therapists in Lakewood, Colorado specialize in visceral manipulation and Barral technique — offering mentorship for providers looking to deepen their practice.
