How does 48-year old pickleball pro Matt Wright make it all look so easy? Fundamentals, baby! Check out this article about how Matt has perfected in-game strategy adjustments and getting to the kitchen line more than his opponents to remain fiercely competitive in a sport that is getting younger and younger.

2001: No Facebook, no Instagram and most offices used fax machines — a time when paper calendars and landlines ruled.

While a lot has changed since then, a few things haven't, including our incredible patient service specialists, like Laura, and our dedication to patient care.

It's not every day a production team calls requesting a physical therapist to help a member of a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame band.

But when they do call, we show up.

Physical Therapist Lauren Caldwell and Physical Therapist Assistant Lyndsay Wingle made their way to Soaring Eagle Casino & Resort to be of assistance.

Rick "Sav" Savage, bass guitarist and one of the founding members of Def Leppard, was dealing with a painful muscle strain. Still, he had a goal to play – and perform – through the band's 90-minute show, saying, "You can't just stand there and play the guitar."

With Lauren and Lyndsay's help, Sav was able to "rock" through the performance; they stayed to make sure.

The duo, of course, left with a keepsake "photograph" with Sav.

Thank you, Sav, Def Leppard and Soaring Eagle for trusting in The Power of Physical Therapy!

Looking for low back pain relief? Our latest blog explores the 10 things you should stop doing immediately, along with four activities that can help.

You feel it in the simplest daily tasks: bending to pick something off the floor, standing while cooking dinner, exercising. It’s the dreaded “low back pain,” that uncomfortable, sometimes debilitating, feeling in the lumbar part of the spine, the area from the lower ribcage to the buttocks.

Imagine arriving to your first physical therapy appointment in a wheelchair and then walking your daughter down the aisle just 10 months later.

That was Larry Heemskerk’s goal when he came to physical therapy back in September. Larry had a history of dizzy spells as well as some impairments in his gait and balance. Working with Physical Therapists Tori Searcy and Alissa Milos, Larry slowly gained his strength back with exercises like standing, marching with weights and resisted cable column walking.

Throughout their time together, Tori and Larry agreed on just about everything except two things: how many laps of walking they were going to do each day and which team was going to win the Big Game. Despite their disagreements, Larry was ultimately the winner, as he completed his rehabilitation and successfully walked his daughter down the aisle. He even took part in the father-daughter dance with his daughter, Danielle.

Larry returned after the wedding to express his gratitude to Tori and Alissa. “You both did such a good job,” said Larry. “I couldn’t have done it without you.”
