OVERVIEW
ABOUT PHYSICAL THERAPY
At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Phoenix, AZ, physical therapy meets people at very different points in their lives. Some walk in with an injury that changed their week overnight. Others show up because their body has felt stiff or weak for so long that it’s starting to affect everything. Some can’t sit comfortably. Some can’t lift without pain. Some want to get back to sports. Others want to handle chores without feeling worn out. We look at how you move, what feels tight, what feels weak, and how your day actually looks. Then we design something that fits real life.
BOOKING APPOINTMENTS
Scheduling is simple. Call Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Phoenix, AZ, or send a request online. Our staff explains the first visit, answers your questions, and makes sure you walk in knowing what’s ahead.

Most people see the best changes over several visits. Spaced enough to let the body adapt. Close enough to keep things moving forward.
DIAGNOSE
EXAM & IMAGING
Your therapist watches how you move, where motion stalls, and which muscles pick up too much work. We’re looking for the real reason behind the pain, not the easy guess. Your plan grows from that.
TREATMENTS
CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM
Treatment shifts as you improve. Early on, we may focus on easing irritation or getting stiff joints moving again. As things settle, the focus shifts to strength, stability, better posture, and smoother patterns that help you move through the day without feeling guarded.
FOLLOW UP
WE CALL TO CHECK IN
Follow-ups keep the progress steady. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Phoenix, AZ, we check what’s changing, what still feels off, and adjust the plan so you don’t stall or backslide.

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!

Where do I start with the praise for this Team of miracle workers... I had suffered from chronic lower back pain for the last 8 years due to 32 years of golf and upper back pain due to 13 years of sitting at a desk. I utilized a chiropractor for the past 7 years but the pain ALWAYS came back and I NEVER got better. One visit with Dr. Josh and two X-rays showed the problem was stemming from my foot and a collapsing arch—which my previous chiropractor NEVER took the time to explore and diagnose.

What Are You Experiencing?
You may not know specifically what type of treatment you would require. What you do know is that you hurt, and right now that’s really what is most important. To better know how to serve you, please take a few minutes to fill out this brief form describing the discomfort or pain you are experiencing. With a clearer idea, we will contact you to discuss what may be occurring and how we may be able to assist.
LOW HIGH
SEVERE PAIN
If you are experiencing severe pain that is not intolerable, don’t wait. Call 911 or proceed directly to your nearby hospital. When the emergency is treated, we will then be prepared to work together to assist you in gaining longer-term relief.
MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT
Maybe your pain isn’t keeping you back, but it is making daily living a bit harder than it has to be. If it’s sharp, annoying, or keeps coming back, let us know what you’re dealing with. We can start together to investigate why it’s happening and how we can make it better.
MINOR PAINS & ACHES
Minor aches may not seem significant, but sometimes they are your body’s way of telling you it needs a helping hand. The stiffness, soreness, or occasional pains are great things to bring to our attention. Let us know what you’ve been experiencing, and we’ll point you in the direction of care that prevents small issues from turning into large ones.
Quick Diagnosis Form
Answering Your Questions
What conditions are treated with physical therapy?
A lot. Back pain that flares during work. Neck tension from long hours at a screen. Knee pain from walking or training. Shoulder strains. Balance issues. Post-surgical stiffness. Old injuries.
How does physical therapy reduce pain?
Pain often shows up when joints or muscles take on more load than they can handle. Therapy helps restore normal movement, strengthen weak areas, and calm tight spots.
How is physical therapy different from working out on your own?
Workouts help, but they’re general. Therapy is targeted. Your therapist chooses movements based on your body’s patterns, not a standard routine. Each exercise has a purpose tied to how you move, not how a gym program is written.
How long before results show?
Some people feel better in a few sessions. Others need more time if the pain has been around for years. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Phoenix, AZ, we adjust the plan along the way so progress keeps building, even if it’s slow at first.
Is physical therapy safe for older adults?
Yes. Therapy is shaped around comfort and ability. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Phoenix, AZ, we use steady, gentle strength work and controlled mobility so older adults can feel stronger and safer without being pushed too hard.
