Peterson Physical Therapy

Peterson Physical Therapy One-on-one physical therapy with full gym integration. No rushed visits. No cookie-cutter plans. Just intentional care that helps you move strong and pain-free
(1)

We believe that a meticulous assessment is the best way to prescribe effective treatment. The most powerful way to provide physical therapy services is with one-on-one attention and consistent follow up with your primary clinician. At Peterson PT we feel that pain serves as a warning sign that something isn't working quite right. It's important to pay attention to those signs and get to the bottom

of what's causing them before too much damage is done. Something that seems as simple as an ankle sprain can really be indicative of a larger problem especially when you start to sprain your ankle repeatedly. The sprains and subsequent pain you feel are symptoms of a larger problem. Rest, modalities, and ice are important but if you don't investigate further up the chain you are missing the most important information. At Peterson PT we will address not just "what" hurts but "why" it's hurting in the first place and how to prevent it from happening again. Services include specialty in orthopedic manual therapy, trigger point dry needling (TDN), therapeutic and corrective exercise prescription as well as thorough education on preventative and self management techniques.

Please Excuse the Language but the message is good.

Modifying the load” is very key in this video. Non-traumatic overuse injuries don’t happen because somethings wrong with you or you’re “too old.” They happen bc you finally hit a load point that your system can’t handle and it’s begging you to make a change and train for it.

Load comes in many forms specifically resistance, speed, endurance, and frequency and all different types of load that can be modified.

This video mentions sports medicine but as we tell our patience we can be “athletes” our whole lives it’s the type of activities that change. So if you’re training to stay in your garden, pick up your grandbaby, or just walk the neighborhood make sure your body is ready for it.
