SERVING THE SUN LAKES, AZ AREA INCLUDING MARICOPA, OCOTILLO AND BEYOND

We combine Physical Therapy with Non-Surgical Orthopedics to create advanced treatment programs that are truly MODERN MEDICINE.

We TREAT you like a 200 Million-Dollar Athlete

for the same price as ANY other physical therapy clinic.

PHYSICAL THERAPY

At our clinic, physical therapy isn’t about handing you the same routine everyone else gets. We employ diagnostic ultrasound to check within the joint or muscle and gain knowledge of what’s really happening so your plan is based 100% around your needs.

NON-SURGICAL ORTHOPEDICS

Less than 7% of aches or injuries need surgery At our Sun Lakes clinic, we treat many common conditions with non-surgical orthopedic care. Arthritis that makes mornings slow, joints that grind and ache, or old injuries that flare up when you least expect them, these are problems we manage every day. The treatments are effective and less disruptive, which means no long recoveries or hospital stays.

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

Josh Adams

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

HOW WE CAN HELP

Explore Our Services

NON-SURGICAL ORTHOPEDICS

Imaging Diagnostics

Guessing wastes time. We use imaging to see exactly what’s happening inside joints and muscles so we can target the real problem from the start.

Visco-Gel Arthritis Injections

Arthritis doesn’t have to keep you on the sidelines. These injections act like a cushion, helping stiff joints move more smoothly.

Joint & Muscle Injections

When soreness refuses to calm down, direct injections reduce inflammation and give the body a chance to heal while you stay active.

PHYSICAL THERAPY

Spinal & Disc Rehabilitation

Back pain changes the way you sit, stand, and sleep. Our spinal programs strengthen the right muscles, improve posture, and reduce the stress that keeps pain hanging around.

Vertigo, Fall & Balance Care

Dizziness and balance problems can take away confidence. Our therapy retrains the body to stay steady, lowering the risk of falls and giving patients more security in their movements.

Post-Operative Therapy

Healing after surgery takes patience and guidance. Our Sun Lakes therapists design step-by-step programs that restore mobility and strength without pushing too far, too fast.

PAIN MANAGEMENT

Q

Dry Needling

Tight muscles can stop progress cold. Dry needling helps release knots, easing tension and often bringing quick relief.

Trigger Point Injections

Painful muscle spots that refuse to relax respond well to trigger point injections. These treatments calm the area so movement feels easier again.

SI Joint Steroid Injections

Lower back pain often comes from the sacroiliac joint. Steroid injections ease inflammation there, giving patients the ability to sit, stand, or walk with less pain.

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
