About Dr. Schuyler Archambault

I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) and Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) working with clients in Boston and Newton, MA. Over the past 5 years I have worked as a Physical Therapist in Boston with patients experiencing orthopedic conditions. In addition, I have spent 10 years as a personal trainer in Boston. In that time I have greatly enjoyed progressing patients through physical therapy and furthering their progressions and achievements post-physical therapy through personal training. I have since decided to open a business in Boston’s Back Bay and Newton, MA where clients can seamlessly transition from physical therapy treatment back into the gym, returning them to sports and helping them attain the most out of life. I am also a adjunct Professor in the Doctor of Physical Therapy program at Massachusetts College Pharmacy and Health Sciences (MCPHS).

As a lifelong athlete, I grew up playing competitive sports and loving anything fitness and health-related. During my time playing college soccer, I suffered an ACL tear resulting in two knee surgeries. As many may know, ACL surgery comes with a lot of physical therapy and strength training. This experience led me to my passion for helping clients return to their full potential. I currently work with busy desk workers who are looking to manage their back pain, start or continue their fitness journey for longevity, and who don’t want to spend hours in the gym. She also works with older clients who are looking to manage chronic diagnoses and exercise for longevity. Lastly, being hypermobile herself, she works with clients who are hypermobile to manage pain and get them back to the activities they love.

 

When I am not treating or training clients in Boston, I am usually on a walk, hiking, running, playing tennis, or at the beach. I believe in the power of movement to keep your mind and body feeling their best.

What Patients are Saying

“I have been a client of Schuyler’s since 2019. With my diagnosis of spondylolisthesis and arthritis, I needed an educated, experienced physical therapist who could handle the extensive physical therapy I would need.

Right from the start, I knew I was fortunate to have her as my therapist. She has extensive education in PT, as well as an invaluable ability to listen and promptly adapt exercises to work for the client. She can zero in on a problem area that has been neglected by others. Simply amazing.

I have also been seeing her for personal training to build on our successful physical therapy. Again, she is methodical and thorough with her training and I feel stronger and healthier as a result. She is not only a hard worker and astute professional, but she loves what she does, and is always upbeat and positive. I feel so glad to have her on my team!”

“I started going to Schuyler after my second knee replacement when I was looking to get back on my feet after surgery. That was two years ago, and I can say without hesitation that I am in much better shape today because of it.

As both a physical therapist and trainer, she is able to work with me on my general physical fitness by improving my strength and range of motion, but also trouble shooting the ongoing realities of living with two knee replacements and a torn rotator cuff. Schuyler has become such an integral part of my fitness and well being, I look forward to seeing her for our weekly sessions. She’s a breath of fresh air!”

- Mike

“As someone who went through a very scary knee injury, it was extremely important for me to have a coach that understood my condition and had the science knowledge to recommend safe exercises. Sky did that and more. With targeted exercises and a detailed daily guide, I was able to gain strength back in my legs and feel more confident doing everyday exercises and tasks.

If you are looking to get stronger and healthier, Sky will make you the best-customized plan. I can’t wait to continue working with her after these results. Thank you, Sky!”

“I’m an over 45-year-old woman who has been working out for an hour, 6 days a week, and have been working out at home for a long time. My workouts became static, boring, and I reached a plateau in progressing toward my goals. Several months ago I started Schuyler’s 5 day virtual program.

Since the start of the programming, I found:

  • Each day of the program is different, progressing each week. I am engaged and challenged everyday.
  • I have had quicker and more noticeable results in my 25-minute workout program than I did in my hour-long workouts on my own.
  • I feel stronger, in better shape, and energized since I started the program. And for me, It’s a great way to start the day!
  • I have found the program diverse, challenging and rewarding enough to continue for the long term.”
