Pinnacle Physical Therapy Changing your perception of physical therapy by giving you the attention and care you need to be the

Pinnacle Physical Therapy is a concierge clinic that gets to the root cause of your pain through analysis, education, and empowerment. Analysis of your movement and looking at your lifestyle holistically helps me determine how your impairments are contributing to your pain or limitations. Education helps you understand your plan of care so that we can work together to help you reach your goals. Empowerment happens when you see positive changes in our sessions and I show you what you need to do on your own to continue those changes toward your end goal. Please feel free to reach out to me through my website, pinnacledpt.com or over the phone at (501) 529-2010. I look forward to meeting you and here's to helping you reach your Pinnacle!

Does your lower back hurt more after sitting for a long time?

Sitting for extended periods can make your back feel stiff and uncomfortable. But that doesn't necessarily mean something is damaged.

Try this today:
- Get up every 30–60 minutes.
- Walk around for 2 minutes.
- Change positions throughout the day.

If your back pain keeps returning, it may be time to let our PTs look at what's contributing to it. Give us a call at 501-529-2010 so we can get you back to feeling great. The earlier in the pain journey you come see us, the less visits you're going to need!

One of the most important things we do at Pinnacle is listen!

So many of us are in such a rush and thinking of our own agenda, we don't take the time to hear other people's stories. You would be shocked at how much insight we can gain from just listening. It's one way Dr. Brian can really use his natural gifts to bless others.

🎃 DON'T LET HALLOWEEN HAUNT YOUR BACK! 👻

Between carrying pumpkins, hauling decorations, and helping little ones with their costumes, Halloween can involve more lifting than you think!

Here are 3 tips to protect your back:

🎃 Keep it close: Hold heavy pumpkins and bags close to your body.

👻 Bend at your hips and knees: Avoid rounding your back when picking things up.

🍬 Make multiple trips: Don't try to carry every bag of candy and decoration at once!

And if your back is already bothering you, don't just grin and bear it. Physical therapy can help you find ways to move with less pain and get back to enjoying the things you love.

🎯 LOW BACK PAIN

If you've been sitting all day, try this before reaching for the heating pad:

Get moving.

Take a 5–10 minute walk.

That's it.

You don't need a complicated stretching routine every time your back feels stiff.

Sometimes the best first step is simply getting your body moving again.

If your back pain keeps returning, that's when it's worth figuring out why.

⚡ WHAT DOES CLASS 4 LASER THERAPY FEEL LIKE?

One of the most common questions we hear:

"Will it hurt?"

Class 4 laser therapy is non-invasive and is generally comfortable during treatment.

Depending on the area and settings, you may feel gentle warmth.

There's no needle.
No incision.
No downtime from the treatment itself.

We may use Class 4 laser therapy alongside exercise, manual therapy, and other treatments depending on what's causing your pain. But, depending on your issue, it could lead to very quick and painless relief!

Weekend Warrior?!

Doing a project you've been putting off?

Remember the 20-minute rule:

Work for about 20 minutes → take a short movement break → get back to it.

Especially if your normal week involves sitting at a desk.

Your body may not be prepared to go from:

8 hours of sitting → 6 hours of yard work. 😬

Break it up. Hydrate. Change positions.

And don't wait until something hurts badly before you pay attention.

🎯 CAN DRY NEEDLING HELP LOW BACK PAIN?

Sometimes.

Dry needling may be useful when tight or overactive muscles are contributing to low back pain.

But here's the important part:

The needle isn't the entire treatment.

We may combine dry needling with:

✔️ Mobility work
✔️ Core strengthening
✔️ Hip strengthening
✔️ Movement retraining
✔️ Manual therapy

The goal is to give you something that lasts beyond the treatment table.

🧊 SHOULD YOU ICE EVERY TIME SOMETHING HURTS?

Not necessarily.

Ice can temporarily decrease pain and may be useful after certain acute injuries.

But if you've had pain for weeks or months, constantly icing the area isn't necessarily addressing the reason you're still hurting.

For persistent pain, we want to ask:

Why hasn't it improved?

That might involve strength, mobility, movement mechanics, tissue capacity, or something else entirely.

Want an easy balance exercise?

Single-leg stance.

Stand near something sturdy.

✔️ Lift one foot
✔️ Hold for 20–30 seconds
✔️ Switch sides
✔️ Repeat 2–3 times

Too easy?

Try turning your head slowly while balancing.

Balance is a skill—and like strength, it can be trained.

⚡ TENDONITIS THAT JUST WON'T GO AWAY?

Resting completely isn't always the answer.

Tendons generally respond well to appropriately dosed loading—but figuring out the right amount can be tricky.

Physical therapy may combine:

🏋️ Progressive strengthening
🤲 Manual therapy
⚡ Class 4 laser therapy
🎯 Activity modification

The goal isn't simply to make the pain disappear for a day.

It's to help the tendon tolerate the activities you actually want to do.
