OVERVIEW

ABOUT PAIN MANAGEMENT

Pain management is all about helping people stay active without pain, controlling every move. Pain is tricky. For one person, it is a sharp jolt in the lower back every time they bend. For another, it is the shoulders that stay stiff after years of strain. Sometimes it is the knees that make even short walks feel like a long hike. These issues do more than hurt. They cause people to hesitate, to avoid movement, to sit out on parts of life they used to enjoy. At the Gilbert clinic, therapists focus on why the pain keeps showing up. Weak muscles that need support. Joints that refuse to move the way they should. Poor mechanics that load the wrong spots again and again. The plan is made for each patient. Exercise, mobility work, stretching, or hands-on treatment may all be part of it. Some people improve quickly, others need longer, but progress is possible either way.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

Pain relief is rarely instant and will require several sessions spaced over weeks, so results are steady and not temporary.

EXAM & IMAGING

This is our go to place for all physical therapy! We have been coming here for at least 3 years now for my daughter’s sports injuries from dance. They also do imaging so it is a 1 stop clinic. We have been very pleased with the results but what’s set them apart is the staff. They take their time to explain everything to you, take their time with the therapy and treat you like family. We highly recommend them to everyone we know!

Anyone looking for a PT team look no further. I had an Anterior Cervical Discectomy and Fusion (ACDF) surgery mid-September. Physical Therapy was recommended after week 4 post surgery. My journey to find the right fit began and ended at Modern Physical Therapy in Gilbert. I was looking for a ‘team’ that would partner with me so I would receive the best, safest and most effective care/results possible knowing that my recovery would not be easy or a quick fix. My treatments began the beginning of October with Ben and Drey who are great listeners, are extremely accomplished with all types of needs and have been an amazing part of my team. Equally as important are the girls who are at the front desk. The girls are first to welcome you, accommodate your schedules while making appts, and answer any questions you may have with insurance etc. I highly recommend Modern PT and their entire team!!

Modern PT is excellent. They are very supportive and really do a good job with therapy. The whole staff is very kind. They take 1 hour and run on time which I really like. I appreciate their treatments. I feel much better after a hard surgery.

What Are You Experiencing?

Most people don’t come in knowing exactly what treatment they need. What they do know is that something hurts. That’s all we need to start. Fill out this quick form and just tell us how your pain feels. Once we read through it, we’ll give you a call to talk about what might be causing it and what we can do to help.

  LOW  HIGH  

SEVERE PAIN

If your pain feels unbearable or you can’t think straight, please don’t wait; call 911 or head to the hospital right away. Get the urgent care first. Once you’re safe, we’ll be here to help with the next steps.

MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT

This is the kind of pain that doesn’t stop you completely, but it makes every day harder. Maybe it’s sharp. Maybe it’s dull and won’t let up. Write down what it feels like. We’ll go over it with you and start figuring out what’s behind it.

MINOR PAINS & ACHES

Even the small stuff matters. A stiff back in the morning, sore joints after work, or little aches that keep showing up are all worth paying attention to. Tell us what you’ve been noticing, and we’ll help you stay on top of it before it gets worse.

Answering Your Questions

What kinds of pain do patients in Gilbert come in with?

Patients often arrive with arthritis pain, tendon problems, stiff joints, or pain after surgery. Some come with long-standing back or neck pain that never seems to fade. Each plan is unique to the person.

Can therapy help with pain caused by daily stress or overuse?

Yes. Many patients in Gilbert develop pain not from one injury but from years of repetitive stress. Therapy builds balance and strength, so those areas are less irritated over time.

What does progress look like in pain management?

It is not always zero pain right away. Sometimes progress is walking farther, sleeping longer without waking, or getting through chores more easily. These changes show therapy is working.

Do I need a doctor’s referral for pain management?

Not always. Many patients book directly, but your insurance may have different rules. Our staff helps figure that out before you begin, so there are no surprise bills.

Is pain management safe for older adults?

Yes. Sessions are adapted to age and health needs. Therapy may include gentle mobility, light strengthening, and balance work to reduce pain safely.

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.
