OVERVIEW
Hand arthritis makes itself known in the small stuff. A jar lid that won't budge for anything. Fingers that feel like wood for the first stretch after you wake up. That deep ache right at the base of your thumb every single time you pinch a key or fight with a zipper.
What's happening underneath is that the cartilage padding those joints has worn thin, so the surfaces don't glide the way they once did. Give it time and some joints swell, and those knobby bumps can start showing up along the fingers. The thumb base usually takes the worst beating, because that little joint absorbs a shocking amount of load every time you grab hold of something.
Now the honest part. Nothing brings worn cartilage back, and anybody telling you otherwise is selling something. But that's a completely different thing from being stuck with the pain. Therapy goes after everything surrounding the joint, and it turns out there's quite a lot to work with there. Stronger muscles, smarter habits, better support during the tasks that hurt. At Modern Medicine of Peoria, AZ, we help your hands hurt less and keep doing what you need out of them.

The front office staff, especially Cheri is wonderful to work with and happy to help with your needs. The therapists there have a great team and attitude. They definitely want to see you succeed. Ian has a great bedside manner but really they all do. I would recommend them anytime.

Fantastic results for chronic sciatica after just 3 weeks. Everyone is kind, helpful and meets you where you are at. I’m so grateful to have found Modern PT.

Modern Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine exceeded my expectations. Being able to get the diagnosis through ultrasound on the first visit is so much more efficient in diagnosing and determining the treatment plan. It was amazing to be able to see the collaboration between Dr. Davies, PT Tim Moxie and Ryan with ultrasound. They are all very caring and I am currently receiving outstanding PT through Tim for shoulder pain. They offer additional treatment options as well. The office staff is flexible. I am recommending this office to friends and family.

What Are You Experiencing?
Pain is hard to put into words. You might not have a good sense of what kind of care you need, and that’s OK. What matters is how things are right now. Please fill out this short form to summarize how things are. We will then follow up and take you through what may be causing the pain, as well as what may work as a solution.
LOW HIGH
SEVERE PAIN
If the pain is severe such that you are unable to deal, don’t wait. Call 911 or go straight to a hospital. Safety is essential, no matter what. That initial action, after which we are able to lend a hand in helping you find longer-term relief.
MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT
Sometimes, pain will keep you from being brought to your knees, but it does disrupt your ability to function in daily life. Perhaps it’s intermittent and stabbing, or maybe it’s just present during the day. Let’s get those details from you, and we’ll do our best to determine what’s causing it.
MINOR PAINS & ACHES
Little aches hurt just as badly. A sore shoulder, stiff knees, or a throbbing ache that shows itself every once in a while can still have its toll. Let us know how you’ve been doing, and we’ll take care of it for you before it grows into something bigger.
