Manual Therapy 🫠

Have you tried dry needling, massage, spinal adjustments, cupping, etc… but haven’t found long term relief for your pain?
•
While manual therapy can be a great adjunct in your rehab process and help you get out of pain.
•
Like a band-aid, it doesn’t fix the root cause of most musculoskeletal injuries. 🤕
•
That’s where proper exercise prescription, load management, and training modifications come into play 💪✅

Ski Season is Underway!

As physical therapists, we see an uptick in ski related knee injuries this time of year.

Most ski related injuries involve an accident on the hill, usually resulting in injuries like sprains, fractures, or ligamentous tears.

One question we have for you over here at Peak Pursuit is: what have you been doing to help prevent injuries this season?

Some athletes train in the offseason to prepare for the hill, but most lack a formal training program.

This may increase your risk on the slopes.

If you are curious about what we as physical therapists suggest to help reduce risk for injury, reach out to us!

Give us a call at +13854925604 and we would be happy to discuss what a formal program would look like so you get the most out of this ski season!
