Today, we were honored to present our big check to the American Cancer Society! 💙

Over the past few months, our STAR clinics across Tennessee and Arkansas came together to raise money through creative fundraisers that brought our teams, patients, and communities together to support a great cause.

Together, we raised $29,859.32 to support the fight against cancer! These funds will support the American Cancer Society's mission to improve the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support, ensuring everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.

Thank you to our STAR teams for putting their hearts into this effort and to everyone who donated, participated, and helped us make a difference in the fight against cancer! 🎗️

Our Springfield clinic collected donations for the American Cancer Society with a fun team competition! 🎗️

Patients donated coins into water bottles, one for each team member. At the end, the team members with the most money in their bottles got a little... wet! 💦😂

Thank you to all our amazing patients and community members who donated, supported this effort, and helped us raise money for such a meaningful cause! 💙

Did you know you may be able to see a physical therapist without a referral first? 💙

Many insurance plans in Tennessee and Arkansas offer Direct Access, which means you can come to STAR Physical Therapy without a doctor's referral.* 🙌

Dealing with pain or injury? Skip the extra step and request an appointment today: starpt.com/request-an-appointment-for-physical-therapy/

*Direct Access does not apply to patients in federal or state-funded programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid.

What does it mean to practice what you preach? Sometimes, it means getting out of bed at 5 AM to train for a marathon. 🏃‍♂️

When Mark Mahan got his PT license and started working at our Clarksville North clinic, he told himself, “Life is never going to slow down from here, and I want to prove that I can still do hard things as a full-time physical therapist.”

So, he found a marathon and went for it.

After months of balancing work with early-morning training, Mark took on the 7 Bridges Marathon in Chattanooga this weekend and crossed the finish line. We’re proud of the dedication, discipline, and determination it took to get there!

At STAR, we believe in practicing what we preach and challenging ourselves to keep moving forward. Mark definitely put that into action. 💙

Congratulations, Mark! 👏

🏃‍♂️ Manual Therapy for Athletes: How Can It Help? 🏋️‍♀️

When pain, stiffness, or limited mobility starts getting in the way of playing your sport, manual therapy might be exactly what your recovery plan is missing! At STAR Physical Therapy, our physical therapists use hands-on techniques to help relieve pain, improve flexibility, and restore normal movement patterns. 🤸‍♀️

But manual therapy isn’t the whole picture. A complete physical therapy plan can also include therapeutic exercise, strength training, and sport-specific movement to help you recover and get back to doing what you love. 💪

Our latest blog breaks down:
• What manual therapy is
• Common techniques physical therapists use
• Conditions it can help treat
• How it can support sports injury recovery
