2023 Seminars! SAVE THE DATES!

FPC will host multiple seminars this year to show you what is new, how we are constantly improving and provide screens for people who have problems areas!

First (February 4th 2023) we have Dr. Muro coming with his ultrasound technician to look at superficial structures via imaging to help you understand what the area looks like from the inside out. Think fingers, wrists, elbows, shoulders, knees, ankles and feet. An US can show dysfunction in your tendons (connects muscles to bone) and ligaments (connects bone to bone).

Second (April 29th 2023) Our PT, Sara will talk about her specialty in vestibular therapy and concussion management. She will explain how dizziness, visual dysfunction, balance deficits, migraines and headaches can be treated through physical therapy!

Following this seminar Sara, Brooke and Corey will all do free quick evaluations on any problems to see if physical therapy would be an option to help you achieve your goals!

Third (June 24th 2023) Our PT, Brooke will talk about her specialty - Blood Flow Restriction Therapy (BFRT). She will explain how the bands around extremities will restrict blood flow to increase recruitment of muscles to aid in recovery and performance enchantment.

Following this seminar Sara, Brooke and Corey will all do free quick evaluations on any problems to see if physical therapy would be an option to help you achieve your goals!

Fourth (October 7th 2023) Our PT, Corey will talk about his specialty Functional Dry Needling. He will explain how using tiny needles will aid in releasing shortened muscles, decrease trigger point activity and improve scar tissue dysfunction.

Following this seminar Sara, Brooke and Corey will all do free quick evaluations on any problems to see if physical therapy would be an option to help you achieve your goals!

Stay tuned, we may add a couple extras in this year as well!

We live in a multi planar world! We rarely move in just one plane. If you want your body to work in multiple planes, train it like that.

Plantar Fasciitis is when the thick band of tissue that runs from your heel to your toes becomes inflamed. It happens to 1 in 10 people.
