Chronic back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care - and one of the most misunderstood. While herniated discs, arthritis, or posture issues often take the blame, a lesser-known culprit hides in plain sight: weak glutes and poor core stability.
Athletes train hard to perform at their best - but even the most dedicated training programs can hide subtle imbalances that lead to pain or injury down the line. That’s where movement screening comes in.
When most people think of injury prevention, they picture stretching or warming up before exercise. While mobility and flexibility are important, the real foundation of injury prevention is strength training.
Recovery is rarely a straight path. Whether you’re healing from surgery, a sports injury, or chronic pain, the process can take weeks - or even months - of consistent effort. During that time, it’s normal to feel frustrated, impatient, or even discouraged.
Recovery - whether from injury, surgery, or chronic pain - isn’t just about physical healing. It’s about rebuilding confidence, restoring independence, and finding motivation to stay consistent. And one of the most powerful yet overlooked factors in recovery success is community.
Knee pain can sideline even the most active individuals, and one of the most common causes is a meniscus tear. Whether it happens from sports, a sudden twist, or simple wear and tear over time, this type of injury can limit your mobility and quality of life.
Running is one of the most accessible forms of exercise - requiring little more than a good pair of shoes and motivation. But while it strengthens the heart, lungs, and mind, it also places repetitive stress on the body. Overuse injuries are common among runners of all levels, from recreational joggers to elite marathoners.
CrossFit is one of the most dynamic and community-driven fitness programs in the world, combining elements of Olympic lifting, gymnastics, and high-intensity interval training. It challenges every aspect of athletic performance - strength, endurance, power, and mental grit.
As winter approaches, skiers and snowboarders everywhere are eager to hit the slopes. But before you strap into your bindings or clip into your skis, it’s essential to prepare your body for the demands of the season. Every year, thousands of athletes - both recreational and advanced - experience injuries that could have been prevented with the right conditioning, mobility, and strength training.

What most don’t realize is that limitations in flexibility, stability, or strength can affect every phase of the swing. That’s where golf physical therapy comes in.
