Important bridge information for people coming over from Dubuque for next week.

04/22/2025

For those of you coming eastbound from Dubuque be prepared to take the scenic tour through Wisconsin to get to the office. Thank you!

Iowa DOT Bridge Washing Causes Eastbound Detour on Julien Dubuque Bridge

Due to bridge washing being performed by the Iowa Department of Transportation (DOT), the eastbound lanes of the Julien Dubuque Bridge will be closed from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day beginning Tuesday, April 22, through Friday, April 25. The westbound lanes of the bridge will remain open.

Eastbound traffic will be detoured using U.S. Highways 61/151 to the Iowa-Wisconsin Bridge. Once in Wisconsin, traffic will use Wisconsin and Illinois state highways 35 to return to U.S. Highway 20 in East Dubuque.

If you have questions regarding this project, please contact the Iowa DOT at 563-927-2397. Please note, closure dates and times are estimates and subject to change without notice based on weather and contractor schedules

Sad post alert ‼️ This will be the last week the office will see this bright smile and welcoming face that greeted you for the last 4 years. This one is especially hard for me as she was my first hire and has been there every step of the way. Wisconsin is lucky to have her and we wish her and her husband the best of luck in their newest adventure!

Lumbar Spine Stenosis 🧐

Patients with stenosis often report pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in their back or legs that becomes worse when standing or walking 👎. The Journal of Pain detailed the optimal management of lumbar spinal stenosis. Here were their top recommendations:

✔️ Manual (hands-on) therapy
✔️ Home exercise
✔️ Education, advice, and lifestyle changes

That’s the same recipe we’ve been using to help stenosis patients for quite some time now. If you or someone you know can’t stand or walk as long as desired, call our office to learn more about the proven management of stenosis. 📞
