Pain is not a normal way of life. Imagine your life with less pain! Imagine being able to travel this holiday season or receive guests and feel 100 percent pain free! Is that really possible?

"I didn't think physical therapy would help, but my doctor suggested it, so I came. I guess I didn't know what to expect, but it worked. I feel much better now." - Recent physical therapy patient at Pinnacle Physical Therapy.

The growing awareness of physical therapy helping patients who suffer with all sorts of muscular pain has drastically increased. This is mostly in part to the overwhelming benefits patients receive after completing a treatment plan. After they experience the results, they can't help but tell others of the benefits. Many patients who come to physical therapy think it will hurt, however, physical therapy gets you out of pain quickly.

What about aquatic physical therapy? Medical providers have increased their awareness and utilization of physical therapy in the pool and have seen its significant benefits to their patients as well. Sometimes there are certain restrictions that inhibit a patient from starting physical therapy on land. Aquatic therapy gives patients the option to begin treatment in a more comfortable environment that alleviates the gravitational force that could be increasing a patient's pain. It is the perfect environment to begin a low impact physical therapy program to begin recovery.

Who can benefit from physical and aquatic therapy? Anyone who experiences any neck or back pain, any joint pain in the shoulders, hips, knees or ankles, pregnant women experiencing low back, sciatic or hip pain, or patients recently recovering from any orthopedic surgery.

Being voted the Best Physical Therapy Clinic in North Idaho in 2009 and 2010, Pinnacle Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine is proud to offer both land based and aquatic physical therapy. They have expanded their schedule to accommodate immediate openings. Call (208) 777-4242 to start getting relief today!
