Physical therapy is a highly successful health treatment program that can reduce pain, improve motion, strength and balance, and enhance your healing process. Physical therapy will treat pain that is occurring from your head to your toes and everything in-between. For example, if you are encountering hip pain that is restricting you from getting around, physical therapy will address your pain with injury specific treatment that will get you up and moving again!

When you see a physical therapist for an injury such as hip pain, they will conduct a full evaluation of your condition and related concerns. This evaluation will involve questions as well as movement test in order to address the root of your pain. At Pinnacle Physical Therapy, we not only treat your pain, but explain your condition and the reason behind your pain so that you will be able to relieve your discomfort as well as prevent it from happening in the future.

Pinnacle Physical Therapy has seven licensed physical therapists and one physical therapist assistant who truly love what they do; getting people back to their life pain free. Our therapists take the time to discuss your condition, how it's treated, the benefits of exercise, and how to protect your body during daily activities that range from walking to acrobatics!

While most of the general public believes that keeping the body still and "protected" from additional strain and injury will help heal your pain, this is not the case. At Pinnacle Physical Therapy our therapists are well educated and experienced in treatment plans that will lead you through the appropriate recovery process.

At Pinnacle Physical Therapy, we take a comprehensive approach and evaluate all related issues to make sure we are helping you progress as quickly and effectively as possible. We believe that you should not be experiencing life with hip pain, or any other pain for that matter. Come see us at one of our two convenient locations and find out how we can help you. We also accept most types of insurance, and offer substantial discounts for cash pay. Call us today to see if physical therapy is right for you!

Can our electronic lifestyle be painful?

We live amongst a digital society where most communication is completed through our smart phones, iPads and laptops, our books are read on nooks and kindles, and our physical activity comes from Wii Fit and Xbox connect. While these devices are a form of convenience and efficiency they may be a source of pain and injury, according to physical therapists from the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA).
