Arthritis causes pain and inflammation, and it can affect one or multiple joints at a time. Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis are the two most commonly experienced types...
Fibromyalgia
Certain diseases such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, multiple sclerosis, shingles, and neuropathy as a result of diabetes, can lead to chronic pain.
Plantar Fasciitis
Physical therapy has been proven to be successful in treating both acute and chronic injuries, such as ligament sprains, muscle strains, plantar fasciitis, bursitis, tendinitis, and more. Your physical therapist will teach you about what your body is experiencing and the recovery process it will go through. You and your physical therapist will work together to help you reach your physical goals, allowing you to be engaged and active in your rehabilitation.
The carpal tunnel is a thin canal positioned beneath the palm of your hand on your wrist. Its job is to keep the median nerve and the tendons that allow you to bend your fingers safe.
Multiple Sclerosis
Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a neurological disorder that affects the brain as well as the spinal cord. MS symptoms include pressure, fatigue, and a general sense of depletion. This disorder has the potential to be fatal if it worsens. If you have this illness, physical therapy will help you move as freely as possible while also reducing your symptoms.
Ultrasound treatments help to increase blood flow, relieve pain, reduce swelling and inflammation, and promote the healing of tissues. Because of this, ultrasound therapy can successfully treat and reduce the painful symptoms of multiple conditions.
Tightness in the hip and gluteal muscles are typically to blame for sciatica pain. Since the sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in your body, starting in your lower back and then splitting down each of your legs, ending in each foot, it can cause pain in your back, buttocks, hamstrings, legs, and feet, all at once. As the sciatic nerve passes through these tissues, it may become compressed. You may feel a “shooting,” “stinging,” or “burning” sensation in your lower back, buttocks, legs, or feet if the sciatic nerve is compressed or irritated.
Whiplash
Whiplash is caused by sudden movements of the neck and head caused by an automobile collision, which is intensely painful and impairs movement.
Sports injuries include any kind of injury received when partaking in physical activity. It does not matter whether you are a professional athlete or a weekend warrior. If you get hurt exercising, you should be assessed by a physical therapist!

Occupational Therapy
Do you have a pain-inducing injury or a medical condition that prevents you from doing the things you enjoy? Occupational therapy is a great approach to learning how to execute everyday things without difficulty, regardless of the condition or injury that is limiting you from doing so.
Frozen Shoulder
Are you experiencing a painful loss of motion and a tightness of the shoulder joint? You might have a condition known as “frozen shoulder.” Movement can be restricted with this condition.
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow is a common term for lateral (outside) epicondylitis. It happens with repetitive tasks that often involve gripping and extending the wrist such as when holding a tennis racket, paintbrush, or hammer. Severe tenderness will be present around the outside of your elbow and can cause pain with gripping objects, lifting objects, and twisting the forearm.
Shoulder Pain
Flatfoot Correction
Neck Pain
Back Pain
Aquatic Therapy
Physical therapy that takes place in water, usually in a clinic pool, is known as aquatic therapy. This type of therapy is preferred if you want to reduce the amount of pressure on the joints, allowing you to move with less pain. It offers relaxing effects that can help with pain alleviation, relaxation, and improved mobility.
Manual Therapy
If you’ve sustained an injury and you’re having trouble recovering from it, manual therapy could help you heal and improve your overall function. Our Bloomer, Colfax and Spring Valley, WI physical therapists use several instruments and strategies to relieve pain and improve function.
TMJ Dysfunction
The temporomandibular joint connects your jawbone and your skull. TMJ dysfunction is a disorder that affects the jaw joint and the muscles that surround it, causing discomfort and stiffness. Likewise, if a joint is injured, TMJ dysfunction may occur.
Foot and ankle discomfort can be caused by a variety of situations in your life. A foot or ankle injury can be excruciatingly painful, making it difficult to bear weight on the affected area. Even modest discomfort can cause physical limits in your day-to-day activities.
Flat Feet
The arch of your foot is formed by several tendons that work together. Your foot will form a proper arch when the tendons pull together properly. Your foot will form a very small arch or no arch at all if the tendons do not pull together properly. This is known as a “fallen arch” or “flat foot,” and it can result in pain or discomfort over time.
Foot Pain
Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis happens when the connective tissue on the bottom of the feet becomes inflamed. This can occur from aggravated overuse, such as constant standing, improper posture, or footwear that lacks proper arch support.
