Balance is something most people take for granted - until it begins to decline. While balance issues are commonly associated with older adults, research shows that balance and proprioception start to decrease as early as age 30. These subtle changes often go unnoticed until they lead to stiffness, instability, or increased injury risk during workouts, daily activities, or recreational sports.
Neck, back, and shoulder pain are some of the most common issues among office workers, students, and anyone who spends long hours at a desk. Prolonged sitting, poor posture, and repetitive stress can gradually overload the spine and surrounding muscles - often leading to stiffness, tension headaches, and chronic discomfort.
Athletes today train harder, move faster, and place greater demands on their bodies than ever before. With this increased workload comes a higher risk of muscle fatigue, strain, and overuse injuries. ARPneuro Therapy - an advanced neuro-based technology - is designed to dramatically accelerate recovery, improve muscle activation, and optimize performance.
Pilates has become a cornerstone of modern rehabilitation and performance training - and for good reason. Its emphasis on controlled movement, core stability, breathwork, and postural alignment makes it an ideal method for building a resilient, high-functioning body. For athletes, active adults, and individuals recovering from injury, Pilates offers significant benefits for injury prevention and long-term strength.
Recovery is one of the most overlooked elements of athletic performance. While training builds strength, speed, and power, it’s recovery that allows the body to adapt, repair, and perform at higher levels. NormaTec Compression Therapy has become a cornerstone of evidence-based recovery, helping athletes reduce soreness, improve circulation, and accelerate tissue repair.
LightForce Laser Therapy is one of the most advanced modalities in modern rehabilitation, offering a safe and effective way to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and accelerate healing. At Core Performance Physical Therapy, we use this Class IV medical-grade laser to enhance recovery, support tissue repair, and help patients return to daily activity or sport faster and with greater confidence.
Chronic pain affects millions of people and is one of the most misunderstood conditions in healthcare. Unlike acute pain - which signals tissue injury - chronic pain often persists long after tissues have healed. This ongoing pain is driven not just by muscles and joints, but by changes within the nervous system itself.
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) pain affects millions of people and can disrupt everything from chewing and speaking to concentrating at work or training in the gym. Because the TMJ connects the jaw to the skull and relies on a complex system of muscles, joints, and neurological control, even small dysfunctions can create significant discomfort.
Dizziness is one of the most common and persistent symptoms following a concussion. Athletes and active individuals often describe feeling “off balance,” lightheaded, unsteady, or disoriented - symptoms that can interfere with daily life, training, and safe return to sport. Because dizziness is closely tied to the vestibular system, vestibular physical therapy (VPT) plays a critical role in concussion recovery.
The off-season is one of the most critical periods in an athlete’s year. It’s where strength is built, weaknesses are corrected, and the body recovers from the demands of competition. But it’s also a vulnerable time - many athletes unknowingly set themselves up for injury by training too hard, too inconsistently, or without proper guidance.
