Treating Arthritis the Safe and Easy Way.

Anyone living with arthritis knows how debilitating it can be. Before turning to potentially harmful drugs or an invasive surgical procedure, give physical therapy a try!

Rest can sometimes be the best cure for arthritic joints. However, too much inactivity can actually worsen the problem by weakening the surrounding muscles.

Each arthritis case is different. Because of this, your treatment plan will be dependent upon the location and severity of your condition, as well as any physical limitations you may have.

If you are looking for a safe and easy way to treat your arthritis pains, look no further! Schedule a consultation today and get started on your path toward long-lasting pain relief.

A 2008 study found that 1 in 15 cases of chronic pain can be attributed to sleep problems.

One of the biggest causes is something called long-term malpositioning. In short, your body is in the wrong position for too long.

Bad posture, poor workstation positioning, even sleeping on the wrong mattress and pillow can force your body into positions your back, hips, shoulders, neck, and head are not meant to be in.

The result is morning achiness, even if you have adequate sleep at night.

While it may seem strange to consult our pain and injury experts for aches and pains that may be caused by your mattress, their expertise may be just what you need. As experts in posture and movement, a physical therapist can assess your body’s position while you sleep and make recommendations on the type of mattress that best supports your body.

Experiencing Back Pain???

A herniated disc refers to an issue with one of the rubbery cushions that are in between the vertebrae.

Symptoms are dependent on where the disc is located and whether or not it’s compressing a nerve.

Typically, one side of the body is affected. You may experience arm or leg pain, tingling or numbness or weakness. If the herniated disc is located in the back, you’ll likely experience pain in the buttocks, thigh and calf.

Our treatment plays a critical role in recovery from a herniated disc. There are a variety of physical therapy techniques, including passive and active treatments.

All around, our experts can help you recover from a herniated disc and help prevent future injury to the spine. If you’re experiencing any symptoms of a herniated disc, it’s wise to see a doctor for an accurate diagnosis.

Since stretching exercises offer so many significant benefits, it’s not hard to see why we use them all the time

Stretching:
✅Increases Your Flexibility:
-Stretching can gently coax the stiffness out of tight tissues.
✅Helps to Prevent Injuries:
-Gentle, careful stretching before a challenging activity can reduce your risk of acute injury.
✅Gives Your Blood Flow a Boost
-when your muscles are tight and stiff, blood doesn’t flow through them as easily. Stretching to ease that muscle tension gives your circulation a welcome boost.
✅Relieves Chronic Pain:
- certain stretching exercises can undo the painful muscle knots associated with tension headaches or chronic pain syndromes such as fibromyalgia. Stretching is also recommended to help control arthritis pain and stiffness.
✅Eases Stress
-Stretching exercises can help to release the accumulated tension in your body while also calming your mind.

Tons of people believe that the aches they’re feeling in their joints are just a sign of aging, but that isn’t always the case.

As we age we are at risk to lose muscle mass and strength, making it harder to do our favorite activities or balance our own body weight. Our clinic can help address joint pain, arthritic pain, and osteoarthritis issues.

Physical therapy might not be your first thought when it comes to nagging back pain, pesky headaches or even helping to control diabetes. But maybe it should be!

We encourage movement across all healthcare practices, from a fall to joint replacement to chronic shoulder pain. Our Pain and Injury Experts can be used to improve your ability to enjoy the activities that you love to do.

If you’re having pain and find yourself becoming increasingly worried or bothered about the severity of your condition, come see one of our Pain and Injury Experts!

Managing Your Chronic Pain.

There are a couple key items that a person with chronic pain can do to help alleviate the pain.

Living an active, healthy lifestyle not only improves our general well-being and reduces our chances of developing chronic pain. Our body was built to move, and we need to understand that not all aches or soreness is cause for concern.

Another key element is that knowledge is power. There is a growing body of evidence suggesting that understanding how pain works is a key strategy in managing it. Simply knowing the basics can decrease your chance of developing chronic symptoms.

Our Pain and Injury experts have the resources to help you get a better understanding of what is causing your pain and the best course of action to help alleviate those symptoms.

Simple Exercises You Can Do on Your Own.

Upper body: Arm Ts.
Directions: Lay on your back in bed with your knees bent or straight and your head facing the ceiling. Put your arms out straight to either side, like you are making a T with your body. Keeping your arms straight, slowly bring your hands together to meet in the middle and give yourself a high-five. Slowly lower your arms to the bed. Repeat 20 times.

Lower body: Kicks.
Directions: While sitting upright with your knees bent, slowly straighten one leg. Straighten the leg, so your foot is off the ground when your leg is straight. Slowly bend the knee back to the starting position. Repeat 20 times on each side.

In addition to improving quality of life, physical activity:

✅Slows the physical changes due to aging.
✅Optimizes body composition.
✅Supports mental and cognitive health.
✅Increases life span.
✅Reduces the risk for falls that can result in injury, hospital stays, or even death.
✅Can help lower the risk of developing chronic diseases.
✅Helps people who have chronic disease manage their health.

Treatment should be done one on one with your physical therapist or healthcare provider after a thorough evaluation. Always consult your own physical therapist or other health care professional before attempting any new exercise program.)

Should You See a Physical Therapist Even If You’re Not Injured?

There's a good chance you’ve never thought about visiting a physical therapist unless you had to.

While we work with our patients teaching them how to do exercises that will strengthen important muscles. As well as working on improving those who are healing from an injury to help restore proper movement patterns in the body and avoid future injury.

We actually also have a roster of patients who come in when they’re not injured. Instead, they treat our services as a form of preventive medicine.

Most preventive patients we have are looking for ways to keep their bodies functioning properly and avoid injury.

The Necessity of Sleep!

Nutrition and exercise are important for maintaining a healthy lifestyle, but sleep is often overlooked. We’re going to look at why sleep is important and how you can sleep better tonight.

Sleep impacts mental health as well, reducing stress and anxiety. Additionally, sleep helps regulate emotions. In fact, a lack of sleep has been tied to depression.

Having a restful night of sleep is physically restorative, allowing tissues to heal and grow. Energy is also replenished for the next day’s needs.

If you are in pain and having trouble sleeping, or if you wake up from sleep with pain. As Pain and Injury Experts, we understand the importance of sleep. Please let us know so that we can help.
