Hand and Wrist Pain
According to a 2016 Bureau of Labor Statistics report, hand and wrist injuries combined for almost 17 lost days of work per 10,000 full-time workers. Shockingly, hand and wrist injuries were second only to back injuries, which accounted for just over 17 days – and were far greater than the 9 days recorded for knees and 8 days for shoulders.
Fortunately, having a complete assessment allows for proper treatment and full resolution. This is what we do at our office! Our average patient has suffered from pain for months and seen 2-3 other providers before finding relief in our office!

Testimonial
"When we first met in the late spring I was embarking on my training for my first Ironman (Wisconsin). The only problem was that I was unable to run due to multiple injuries and muscular imbalance issues. You took the time to determine the cause of the problems, delivered ART and worked closely with me on everything from proper running form to stretching and nutrition.
There's NO DOUBT in my mind that without your consistent treatments, upbeat encouragement, and patient education that I would not been able to properly prepare for and complete Ironman Wisconsin."
