To the EMS providers who drop everything when the call comes in, THANK YOU!!
Thank you for the long shifts, the missed holidays, the split-second decisions, and the compassion you bring into some of life’s hardest moments.

You’re often the first on scene and the steady presence people remember when everything else feels uncertain. The work you do takes strength, heart, and an incredible commitment to serving others.

This EMS Week, we celebrate and thank all EMS professionals for the care, sacrifice, and dedication you bring to our communities every single day.

We are truly grateful for all that you do, and here to support you in any way we can.

The work you do keeps everything moving; most people just don’t see it.

On Public Works Week, we’re recognizing the crews behind the scenes who build, fix, clear, and maintain the systems our communities rely on every single day. Roads, water, utilities, infrastructure, you make it all work.

At Advanced Industrial Medicine, we’re proud to support public works teams with injury care, prevention, and performance strategies built for the physical demands of the job, so you can keep showing up and getting it done.

Thank you for the work that keeps our communities running.

Todd Blyleven’s message was forged in one of the most chaotic moments imaginable.

After stepping forward during the 2017 Route 91 mass shooting in Las Vegas, Todd turned adversity into purpose, now helping first responders, tactical professionals, and high-performance teams strengthen the mindset needed to lead under pressure.

His keynote goes beyond motivation, delivering real-world insight on resilience, mental readiness, physical preparedness, and performing when the stakes are highest. For those who serve on the front lines, Todd brings a powerful reminder: preparation matters, leadership matters, and how you respond in critical moments can change lives.

Join us this July in Wisconsin Rapids, WI, for the Strength & Readiness Symposium - built for law enforcement, fire, EMS, and first responders committed to staying physically strong, mentally sharp, and ready for whatever comes next.

Hear from Todd Blyleven and other industry experts as they dive into resilience, recovery, performance, nutrition, and leadership under pressure.

What an amazing time at the 2026 Portage County Business Council, Inc. Business Expo!

A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth to say hello, ask thoughtful questions, and connect with our physical therapists Bryan, Dennis, and Evan. It was great catching up with so many familiar faces and meeting new people from the community.

We’re grateful to be part of such a strong and supportive business community, and we appreciate everyone who helped make this event such a success.

Looking forward to continuing the conversations and connections made throughout the expo!

If you spend any time with our team, you’ll quickly realize we don’t do much sitting still outside the clinic.

Take Abby Scaffidi, PT, DPT, for example.

When she’s not working with patients, you’ll find her doing what most people would call “fun”… and what also happens to be a pretty solid workout:
flying airplanes and then pushing them into hangars after landing ✈️
or trying to keep up during pickup hockey 🏒

Different roles, different hobbies, same common thread: we like to stay active, and we occasionally get reminded just how much effort our “fun” can be 😄

That’s a big reason we believe so strongly in this: movement is medicine. With the right support and a can-do attitude, you can keep doing what you love for decades to come.

Abby sees a lot of neck and knee pain in the clinic, but the goal is always the same- helping you move better, feel better, and stay in the game.

We’re here to help you keep doing what you love, comfortably and confidently.

All locations are open and accepting new and returning patients. Call today!

Traci and Lynsey recently connected with the crew to talk all things injury prevention, nutrition, recovery, and the unique challenges that come with pushing limits on the trail.

We’re proud to support this awesome group of athletes and help keep them healthy, strong, and riding all season long.

If you’re in the Stevens Point area and looking for a welcoming community of people who love mountain biking and the outdoors, this is a group worth checking out!

Get to know Adrienne Kaster, PT!

Adrienne loves staying active by cycling, walking the dog, and enjoying the outdoors — so she understands how frustrating it is when pain keeps you from doing the things you love. That’s why she’s passionate about helping people get moving again and stay moving.

One thing she sees ALL the time? Hip pain and piriformis syndrome — especially in active people who forget one important thing...

✨ Stretch before AND after activity.
Your muscles will thank you later.

And if you tweak something?
Don’t ignore it and hope for the best.
Ice early, listen to your body, and yes, this is the shameless plug part, call us sooner rather than later 😁

The faster we can help, the faster you can get back to bike rides, walks, workouts, and life.

Adrienne is part of our Stevens Point team, helping patients move better, feel stronger, and get back to what they love every day.

All locations are currently open and accepting new and returning patients. Call today!

Happy Nurses Day to the ones who keep everything moving.

To the nurses who work with our patients - thank you for answering the call (even the hectic ones), keeping communication tight, and always putting patients first. You advocate, collaborate, and find a way forward when it matters most.

Your impact is in every better outcome, every smoother handoff, every patient who gets the care they need because of you.

We’re proud to be on your team!

You don’t flinch. You go.

Through smoke, chaos, and calls that don’t make headlines, you show up anyway.

On International Firefighters’ Day, we’re not just saying thank you.
We’re recognizing the grit it takes to do this job over and over again.

We also want to recognize the Chiefs leading the departments we serve. Your leadership sets the standard, and we’re grateful to support your teams to help ensure every firefighter is prepared, protected, and career-ready.

Happy National Teacher Appreciation Day! 🍎

You manage a full classroom, read handwriting no one else can, and somehow handle “one quick question” all day long…A+ material, no question.

But all that standing, bending, and carrying? It adds up.

Good news: many local school districts partner with Advanced Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine as a Tier 1 provider, so care is often easier to access and better covered.

If your neck, back, or knees are speaking up, it might be time to listen. Check your benefits or reach out, we’ll help you sort it out.
