OVERVIEW

ABOUT Balance / Fall

Balance problems can change how you move through the day. You stand up and feel a drift. You turn to reach for a cabinet and grab the counter. You step onto a curb, and your foot lands a little off. After a few close calls, you start walking slower and watching the ground nonstop.

Falls are not random for most people. Leg weakness, slow reaction time, foot pain, vision changes, and inner ear issues can all add up. At Modern Medicine of Chandler, AZ, we help you build steadier steps and stronger balance skills. We focus on safety first, then confidence. The goal is to help you move around home and town with less worry.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

Call the clinic or schedule online. Wear supportive shoes and comfortable clothes. Bring any notes from your doctor and a current medication list if you have one. Any questions you have, we can answer during this call.

Most people start with one or two visits each week. Early sessions stay simple and focus on basic control. As you improve, visits spread out, and drills start to look more like real life movement.

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

We look for what is making balance feel off. We check how you walk, turn, and rise from a chair. We also look at hip and leg strength, ankle control, and how your eyes and head handle motion.

TREATMENTS

CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM

Treatment focuses on tasks you actually do. We practice steady standing, safer turning, and controlled steps in multiple directions. We build strength in hips and legs and train reactions so you can catch yourself sooner.

FOLLOW UP

WE CALL TO CHECK IN

Each visit starts with a quick update on stumbles, near falls, and confidence. We retest key balance items so changes are easy to see. Then we add small challenges like uneven surfaces, carrying light items, or changing speed while walking.

Office was very welcoming from the moment you walked into the office, Marissa and Kelsey were there to greet me. They know all of their patients and treat them like family. Dr. Dault was AMAZING. SHE listened and really searched to find the answers to my pain. Eric was very thorough when doing my ultrasound to diagnose my issue. Their recommendations helped me and in the end my pain decreased! Thank you to the entire team!

I was in a pretty dark place before starting at the Chandler location. My low back pain was completely debilitating and affecting the quality of my life for many years. I saw Phil once a week for 6 weeks and feel stronger and more confident than I have in many, many years. Phil explained the results of my MRI in great detail and answered my questions (as trivial as they might have been) with respect and understanding... I have been to many physical therapists before and the results I got here were the best. I highly recommend the Chandler location and will go back again if I ever need to!

What Are You Experiencing?

You don’t need to know the exact name of what’s going on and most people don’t. What matters is how it feels to you. Use the short form to tell us, even if it’s just “my back hurts when I wake up” or “it feels like a sharp pinch.” Once we see it, we’ll give you a call to talk things over and figure out some next steps together.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If the pain is so bad you can’t think straight, please stop here and call 911 or go to the hospital. Getting safe is the first step. When you’re ready afterward, we’ll be here to talk about longer-term help.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

This kind of pain might not knock you down, but it makes life harder than it should be. Maybe it’s a stabbing pain when you move a certain way, or maybe it’s a dull ache that just won’t quit. Write it down as best you can. That’s all we need to get started.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

Little things add up, too. A stiff neck, sore knees, or that nagging twinge you keep brushing off all matter. Share what you’ve been noticing, and we’ll help you keep it from becoming something bigger.

Answering Your Questions

Why do I feel unsteady when I look up or turn my head?

A lot of people notice this in the shower, in the kitchen, or when they check traffic. Your balance system has to sort out head motion fast. If the timing is off, you can feel that quick sway.

What if I get dizzy in crowded stores?

You are not alone on that one. Big aisles, bright lights, and people moving around you can make your eyes work overtime. That can trigger the “I need to grab something” feeling. We build tolerance step by step and give you simple pacing tips so errands feel doable again.

Can balance training help if I have knee or hip pain?

Yes, and it often helps more than people expect. Pain can make you limp or shift weight without noticing. That can throw off balance. We work on strength and control in ways that respect the joint so you feel steadier without flaring pain.

How do I know if my shoes are part of the problem?

If you feel like you slide inside the shoe, or the sole feels worn, it can matter. Some shoes also bend too much and make the ankle work harder. We look at your foot control and how you step. Then we can point out what to look for so you feel more secure.

What is one thing I should stop doing right away?

Stop rushing. Slow down, use a hand on something solid, and take the turn in two steps if you need to. That small change can prevent a fall.

MODERN MEDICINE
CEO

"When an athlete gets injured, a team of doctors and therapists evaluates them, orders imaging, and decides the best path forward. If surgery is needed, they go straight to surgery; if not, they get condition-specific physical therapy and targeted injections to speed healing. This is the same process pro athletes use to get back on the field quickly—and at Modern, you can access that same level of care for the same cost as any other physical therapy clinic."   - Josh Adams

Without Advanced Imaging

is Operating Blindly.

WHY WE'RE DIFFERENT

CHOOSING THE MODERN WAY

What separates MODERN SPORTS MEDICINE from just about every other company is our physical therapists and orthopedists utlize advanced imaging technology to enable them to SEE what they are doing.  Everyone else is operating blindly.

ADVANCED IMAGING + TREATMENT = MODERN
