OVERVIEW

ABOUT SPORTS MEDICINE

An injury doesn’t just show up on the field. It sneaks into normal life, too. Pull a hamstring, and suddenly, climbing into your car feels awkward. Bang up your wrist and typing at your desk or opening a jar is a pain. A stiff back? That one likes to remind you every time you bend over to tie your shoes. At Modern Medicine of East Mesa, AZ, we get it. Pain is part of the story, but not the whole thing. We want to know when it started, what makes it flare up, and what you’ve already tried. Once we know that, we can actually build a plan that makes sense for you.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

It’s pretty simple to set something up. Call our East Mesa office or just grab a time online. We’ll tell you what to bring, how long the first visit usually runs, and whether you need any notes for school, work, or your coach. If an X-ray or MRI might be smart, we’ll point you in the right direction so you’re not stuck figuring it out on your own.

Healing isn’t instant. First visits are usually about calming pain and loosening things up. Later sessions work on strength and control, so you’re not just better for a week, but you stay better when life picks back up.

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

That first appointment is a mix of talking and moving. We’ll watch how your joints bend, how steady you are, and how strong things feel. If something seems off, we’ll get imaging so nothing important slips by.

TREATMENTS

CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM

Nobody gets the same plan. Some people need more hands-on work, others need strength or mobility drills. As pain settles down, we add in the movements that look more like your sport or your everyday life.

I was in chronic pain for 6+ months. I saw three different sports medicine physicians with no answers or relief. I started going to Bloom with the expectation of just managing my pain with dry needling. Eric did a few treatments on my shoulder as I requested but I kept coming back. He took a time out and wanted to make sure that nothing was overlooked, so he did an ultrasound. He found a rotator cuff tear, it was overlooked by other providers. I’m finally getting the right treatments and healing. I’m so so grateful that he took the time. This office is wonderful and you feel like family as soon as you walk through the door.

I started seeing Eric in the middle of last year because of a sudden back spasm injury. As an avid runner I wanted to be treated and be able to get back out there on the road again. Eric and his team gave me the confidence and the tools to have me running in 6 weeks. His knowledge and attention to his patients went far beyond what I have received in a long time at other PT facilities. I am now a healthy runner, I know what it takes to keep my body strong, and I can always visit the team when I need to keep a little tweak or get dialed in before the races.

I had never tried, or even heard of, dry needling before, but after Eric treated my elbow, it magically came around in a matter of weeks, after being tight and sore and painful for months post-surgery. I couldn’t believe it! He then turned his attention to areas of my back, hips and legs, and the impact was similarly fantastic! I can’t say enough about the procedure, and Eric’s expertise in it!… In addition to the dry needling, Eric and Frank have put me through and given me a variety of core and functional exercises to help with my strength and stability…

What Are You Experiencing?

You might not know what treatment you need, as most people don’t. What you do know is that something hurts. That’s enough for us to start. Fill out this quick form and just tell us how it feels. We’ll look it over and reach out to talk through what could be going on and what might help.

LOW HIGH

SEVERE PAIN

If your pain feels like too much to handle, please don’t wait around. Call 911 or get to the nearest hospital. Once the emergency part is taken care of, we’ll be here to help you with longer-term support.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

Maybe it’s not stopping you from getting through the day, but it’s always there feeling sharp, dull, or just plain annoying. Let us know what it feels like. We’ll work with you to figure out why it’s happening and how to make things easier.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

A little soreness or stiffness might not sound like much, but it can still mess with your day. Those small aches are often your body’s way of saying something needs attention. Tell us what you’ve been noticing, and we’ll help keep it from turning into something worse.

Quick Diagnosis Form

Answering Your Questions

How soon should I start treatment after an injury?

Sooner is usually better. Waiting it out often means things take longer to heal. Even if it feels minor, a quick visit can help keep it from turning into something that drags on for weeks.

Do you treat overuse injuries?

Yes, all the time. Runners with shin splints, lifters with cranky elbows, desk workers with sore backs. Repetition wears you down. We figure out why it’s happening and fix those weak spots so it doesn’t just keep coming back.

What if I’ve already seen a doctor?

That’s fine. A lot of people come in after a doctor visit with scans or a diagnosis in hand. Therapy is what usually bridges the gap between “you’re cleared” and actually feeling strong enough to move without hesitation.

Do you help people before surgery?

Yes. Prehab matters. Getting stronger before surgery usually means an easier time bouncing back after. We help you build that foundation so the road back feels shorter.

I’m not an athlete, should I still come in?

Of course. Half of our patients just want to move without hurting. Hiking, gardening, playing with kids, walking the dog, those count. Sports medicine isn’t just about competition. It’s about keeping people moving the way they want.

"Our goal is to help you solve some of your most painful life experiences."

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

Your PT

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
