Reduce knee pain and injury risk while skiing with preseason strength training, proper equipment, and smart on-snow habits.

Get ready for ski season with targeted strength, balance, and endurance training. Learn how preseason ski exercises can improve performance, reduce injury risk, and help you enjoy more time on the mountain.

Experiencing ankle pain while running? Learn how to recognize when aches and pains are a normal part of training, when an ankle injury may need attention, and how physical therapy can help runners modify training and return to running confidently.

Learn what patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFP) is, what causes pain around the kneecap, who is most affected, and how physical therapy, strengthening, and early intervention can help reduce knee pain and improve function.

Pelvic floor physical therapy (PFPT) is a highly effective, non-invasive treatment option for managing endometriosis pain and dysfunction. While it cannot reverse the underlying disease process, PFPT targets fascial adhesions, trigger points, and nerve distributions to restore mobility to the pelvis, hips, and lower back. Combined with the 2026 ACOG guidelines—which now advocate for earlier, non-invasive, presumptive clinical diagnoses—patients can bypass years of delayed care and access therapeutic movement and dry needling much sooner.

Heel striking and foot pronation get a lot of attention in the running world, but are they actually increasing your injury risk? Explore what research says about foot strike patterns, pronation, and how your body naturally adapts while running.

Physical therapy plays a key role in long-term recovery by focusing on movement, strength, and function. While chiropractic care, massage therapy, and acupuncture can reduce pain and improve mobility, combining these passive treatments with active, exercise-based physical therapy helps address the root cause of injury and prevent it from returning. Learn how integrating physical therapy into your care plan can help you move better, feel stronger, and stay pain-free.

Your body rarely jumps straight to injury—it whispers first. A tight hip, a clicking shoulder, a nagging headache. Most people push through. But the strongest performers don’t wait for things to get worse—they ask for help early.

Did your back suddenly hurt after bending, lifting, or twisting? It’s easy to blame one “bad” movement, but pain is rarely caused by a single moment. More often, it’s the accumulation of small stresses over time. Here’s why your body isn’t as fragile as you think.

If you think HYROX is a strength competition with some casual jogging between sled pushes, the numbers politely disagree.

Across the race, athletes cover 8 kilometers of running, and according to performance data released by HYROX, the majority of total race time is spent on those run segments. That means your aerobic engine, pacing strategy, and ability to recover between efforts often matter more than how much weight you can move once.

Strength absolutely plays a role. But in HYROX, it is your engine that carries the story.

If you’re training hard but still feeling sore, tired, or stuck, the missing piece might not be another workout—it might be recovery. Sleep, fueling, hydration, and nervous system regulation are the quiet drivers of progress most people overlook.

Resolutions rely on motivation. Persistence relies on adaptability. You don’t need another resolution—you need a way to keep going when life gets messy (and your legs hurt sitting down on the toilet).

You know that moment when one tiny movement suddenly makes your back (or neck, or hip) scream—and you didn’t even do anything “wrong”? Our instinct is usually to stop everything, lie down, and wait it out. But what if the thing that helps most isn’t rest… it’s intentional movement? “Motion is lotion” isn’t just a catchy PT phrase—it’s grounded in how our joints, muscles, and nervous system actually heal. And when done correctly, movement can be the key to stopping acute pain from turning into chronic pain.

Following an injury we often reach for the RICE Method as this has been the go-to method for over 20 years. Over the last 20 years more research has been done by multiple researchers showing that the Rest. Ice. Compress, Elevate method actually inhibits healing — the opposite of what we’re looking for. The new proposed method is PEACE & LOVE. The focus of this method is allow the body to heal how it wants to - “body knows best”. While also encouraging movement/exercise to increase blood flow to the injury for healing. The body is made to move and when it rests it actually can exacerbate the injury. 

This means that even in healthcare there is not ONE way to improve all your symptoms.

This is a question that I’ve been receiving more frequently lately. How about I share some statistics that have been published…

Physical therapy as we know it today was not always this streamlined. As several things start due to war so did physical therapy.

Back in World War I (1917), reconstruction aides (“re-aides”) were recognized part of the medical team to “reconstruct”...

There is a new trend on social media (specifically TikTok) about barefoot shoes. There is also a lot of truth to what is being said about the benefits of switching to these types of shoes…

When we talk about healing from injury, we often focus only on the physical tissue. But every injury is also a trauma to the nervous system and the mind. When the mental and emotional layers are ignored, pain has a way of sticking around—sometimes for years. Chronic pain isn’t just about what happened to your body; it’s about what your body learned to protect you from. True healing requires a full-human approach, one that rebuilds trust, safety, and movement together.

The human body is a majorly complex ecosystem. If everything works exactly how it “should” then we wouldn’t experience chronic pain, popping/cracking, etc. Although, we are all human and life is constantly throwing us curveballs…
