OVERVIEW

ABOUT SPORTS MEDICINE

At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of South East Tucson, AZ, sports medicine supports anyone who wants to stay active without getting sidelined by the same pain over and over. Some people come in after a rough weekend hike. Others tweak something during a gym session or while doing chores at home. Some deal with old injuries that never healed right and flare every time they try to push themselves. Others want help staying active as they get older and feel their joints working harder than they used to. We look at how you move, where things feel weak, and which motions trigger discomfort. Then we build a plan you can actually follow.

BOOKING APPOINTMENTS

Appointments are simple to set up. Call Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of South East Tucson, AZ, or send an online request. Our staff walks you through the first session and helps with any questions.

Sports-related injuries or setbacks usually need several visits. We space them so your body adapts but keep them close enough to maintain progress.

DIAGNOSE

EXAM & IMAGING

Your therapist watches your movement during basic tasks and sport-like motions. We look at control, balance, strength, and where your pattern breaks down. That pattern tells us why the pain keeps returning. Your plan starts there.

TREATMENTS

CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM

Treatment shifts as you get stronger. Early sessions may calm irritation or restore cleaner motion. Later, we work on strength, stability, and confidence so your body can handle real activity without flaring up again.

FOLLOW UP

WE CALL TO CHECK IN

Follow-ups matter. We adjust your plan as your body changes so you stay on track, not stuck in the same cycle.

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 injuries can sports medicine help with?

Quite a few. Knee pain from running or hiking. Shoulder irritation from overhead lifting. Hip tightness from long rides or repetitive training. Ankle sprains from quick movements. Low-back strain that shows up during sports or yardwork.

Can sports medicine help older adults who still want to stay active?

Yes. Many active adults in this area want to keep moving but feel unsure how to do it safely. We adjust everything to your comfort level so you can stay active without feeling like your joints are working too hard.

What if the pain isn’t from one specific injury?

That’s common. Pain often builds slowly from repeated stress, not one big moment. Sometimes the issue comes from a weak link in the movement chain. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of South East Tucson, AZ, we look for those weak spots and help rebuild them.

Can sports medicine help improve how I move, not just heal pain?

Yes. Many patients come in because they want to move better, not only because they hurt. Better mechanics usually mean fewer injuries and more confidence.

Will I have things to work on at home?

Most likely. Simple, targeted movements that match your needs. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of South East Tucson, AZ, we keep home exercises short and manageable so you can actually stick with them.

"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

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.
