Pinnacle helps achieve complete wellness

No matter your age, gender or lifestyle, all of us will experience pain at some time in our lives.

That pain could be in the form of an acute injury or in the form of nagging back, neck or hip pain that can change the way you go about your everyday life. However that pain appears in your life, there is hope that you can get back to the things you love doing, pain free. The physical therapists at Pinnacle Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine pride themselves on treating the source of the pain, not just where it hurts. Therapists take the time and effort to not only get you out of pain fast, but educate you so that the pain doesn't return.

At Pinnacle our therapists are here to help people get back to their normal lives, whether that is training for athletic events or simply giving people the ability to garden and clean their house without discomfort. Each one of our patients receives one-on-one care to ensure that their individual goals are being met and addressed appropriately.

In addition to Pinnacle's physical therapy services, Pinnacle has also developed programs to help the community live healthier lives.

These programs include a Total Joint Replacement class. The class covers everything patients undergo before and after a total hip or knee replacement surgery. Each attendee receives a free total joint replacement guidebook filled with frequently asked question, things to do to prepare their body and homes for the procedure, and exercises to help in the overall outcome of the surgery.

For those of you who are training for an upcoming walk, run, triathlon or just enjoy running, Pinnacle will be holding a Free Running Clinic from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 28 at the Post Falls location - 1590 E. Polston Ave. The 30-45-minute clinic will consist of a biomechanical examination of your running technique, strength and flexibility test to identify potential injury areas, footwear analysis and Free Video Analysis of your running gait. Space for the class is limited, to ensure a spot please call (208) 777-4242.
