Back, neck, hip, knee, foot, shoulder and more

What we treat

Most people come in pointing at one spot: the knee, the low back, the shoulder. That's where it hurts, but it's rarely where the problem started.

Pain usually shows up where your body has been doing more than its share of the work. So wherever it hurts, the approach is the same: a full-body movement assessment to find what's actually driving it, then a plan to fix it so it stops coming back.

By body area

Where it hurts

Wherever the pain shows up, we look at the whole chain, then build the strength and control to take the pressure off.

Human spine highlighted from neck to low back

Back and neck pain

Low back pain, disc bulges and herniations, neck pain, stiffness, and pain that flares when you lift, sit or run. Your back is often the hardest worker in your body, covering for hips and a mid back that don't move well.

Low back pain → · Neck pain →

Hip and knee pain

Runner's knee, patellar tendinopathy, IT band pain, hip flexor and hip impingement pain, labral irritation, and arthritis, including being told you're "bone on bone." The knee usually takes the blame for what the hip and foot aren't doing.

Bones of the foot and ankle with the Achilles tendon highlighted

Foot, ankle and lower leg

Ankle sprains (including the ones that keep happening), Achilles tendinopathy, plantar fasciitis, shin splints and calf strains. Your feet meet the ground first, so how they move changes everything above them.

Shoulder and elbow pain

Rotator cuff tendinopathy and tears, shoulder impingement, labral irritation, tennis elbow and golfer's elbow. A stiff mid back or rib cage changes how the shoulder has to work, especially under a barbell, a club or a racket.

Shoulder pain →

Sciatic nerve path from the low back down the leg

Nerve pain

Sciatica, pinched nerves, radiculopathy and carpal tunnel. Most of the time the nerve is irritated, not damaged. We calm it down, give it room to move, and rebuild your confidence to load it again.

Hands-on work and dry needling are tools I use when they help. They're never the whole plan.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can physical therapy help a herniated disc or sciatica?

In most cases, yes. Disc findings show up on MRIs even in people with no pain, so the image rarely tells the whole story. We focus on how your body is moving and loading, calm the irritation, and build back the capacity to do what you want. One exception: if you have leg weakness that's getting worse, numbness in the groin or saddle area, or changes in bladder or bowel control, see a physician right away before starting physical therapy.

Do I need an MRI before starting physical therapy?

No. Most people don't need imaging to start. If anything in your evaluation suggests you do, I'll tell you.

Can physical therapy help arthritis or "bone on bone" knees?

Yes. What shows up on an X-ray and how much it hurts often don't line up. Building strength and changing how the joint is loaded can make a real difference, even when the X-ray looks bad.

I've already done physical therapy and it didn't work. Why would this be different?

Most clinics treat the spot that hurts, with a similar set of exercises for everyone. Here, every session is 60 minutes, one-on-one, and the plan comes from a full-body assessment and your goals.

Do you use dry needling?

Yes, when it helps. It's a tool to calm pain down so you can train, never the whole plan.
