Discover the HELIX Difference:

Active Approach: Recent research confirms that staying active is key to maintaining healthy joints. Our approach focuses on keeping you moving and preventing arthritis from worsening.
Individualized Care: Arthritis comes in various forms, with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis being common culprits. Our physical therapists conduct a thorough assessment to tailor your treatment plan to your unique needs.
Evidence-Based Solutions: Benefit from the latest insights in arthritis management. Our treatments are backed by research, emphasizing joint movement, muscle strength, balance, and coordination.

Osteoarthritis, often described as the “wear and tear” form of arthritis, results from the gradual breakdown of cartilage in the joints. Aging, injury, or repetitive use can contribute to its development. Our physical therapy disrupts this cycle by improving joint movement, muscle strength, and overall function, reducing pain and inflammation.

Rheumatoid arthritis, an auto-immune response affecting the joints, can lead to pain, stiffness, and inflammation. Our tailored treatments address the unique challenges posed by rheumatoid arthritis, focusing on pain relief, joint mobility, and overall well-being.

If arthritis is impacting your daily life, our physical therapists are here to help. From evaluating your symptoms to designing targeted exercises and manual therapy, we aim to improve your range of motion, strength, and overall performance. Our goal is to not only alleviate your pain but to equip you with strategies for sustained mobility.

FAQs

How do I know if my arthritis pain is serious?

Arthritis pain can be categorized as acute or chronic, depending on its duration. Acute pain is severe and short-term, while chronic pain persists for three months or more, causing either dull or intense discomfort. If your arthritis pain interferes with daily tasks, suddenly worsens, or lingers beyond three months, it’s time to consult a physical therapist who specializes in sports-related issues.

How do I get relief from arthritis pain?

Individuals experiencing arthritis pain can find effective relief through sports-focused physical therapy. This specialized approach aims to enhance range of motion, strengthen specific muscle groups, and employ targeted massage techniques to alleviate tension. Collaborating with a physical therapist can significantly reduce the severity of arthritis pain and potentially prevent the need for invasive procedures like surgery. For those committed to an active lifestyle, a tailored physical therapy plan ensures a swift return to their favorite sports and activities.

What is the best sports-centric physical therapy treatment for arthritis pain?

Your physical therapist, understanding the demands of an active lifestyle, will create a personalized treatment plan. This plan incorporates optimal methods for pain relief, promoting healing, and restoring function to the affected areas of your body. The comprehensive evaluation at your initial appointment guides the selection of treatments, which may include ice and heat therapies, manual therapy, posture improvement, targeted stretches, and exercises. While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for arthritis pain, your physical therapist will ensure you receive sports-focused treatments tailored to your unique needs.

How do you relieve arthritis pain without drugs?

Individuals seeking relief from persistent arthritis pain can benefit from a drug-free approach, especially considering the potential side effects of medications. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and corticosteroids pose risks, including blood clots, heart issues, cataracts, high blood sugar, and bone loss. Physical therapy stands out as a safer and healthier alternative. During your consultation, your physical therapist will delve into your medical history, lifestyle, and specific pain areas to create a tailored treatment plan. This approach ensures long-term results, allowing you to maintain an active and healthy lifestyle without the reliance on medications.

Can’t say enough about Wes

I hurt my leg training for a marathon and after working with him a few months, my leg feels GREAT! I just got home from a trip to Europe that I was a little worried about. I felt 100% the 2nd or 3rd day in Paris - maybe it was the 12-13 miles we were walking every day, maybe it was the French bread/wine, maybe it was both. Since i've been back, i've been riding my (indoor) bike too, just trying to get my leg stronger (still going to the gym, still doing my exercises).

THANK YOU for all of your efforts, your knowledge, your patience. I couldn't have done it without your guidance. And it is 100000% appreciated.

John K.

Skilled and very engaging

I found Wes while he was at Diablo PT via Yelp when I needed help with severe sciatic pain. I was able to schedule sessions with Wes and was amazed at his knowledge, skill and very engaging personality.

At no time did I ever feel that I was getting a "cookie cutter" problem. He listens very well and works with you as an individual to provide exactly what you need.

I can't say enough good things about Wes and how much he helped me fully recover and get even better than I was before my injury.

James F.

I feel better each time I leave

Wes Anderson is one of the best physical therapist I have ever had. He is professional, bright, explains everything he is doing to strengthen my body, and I feel better each time I leave. He does not just give you a massage. He is breaking down tight muscles and gives me more flexibility and movement.

No matter what your issue is, you will get the best of care

I highly recommend Wes in Danville. Before going to Wes I had gone to several other places. Wes is, hands down, the one of the best. I saw him at his old clinic in Danville Diablo Physical Therapy. No matter what your issue is, you will get the best of care.

Super detail oriented

Wes is awesome. Very knowledgeable and supportive.

Super detail oriented, reviewed my surgery notes and stick with me through each rep to make sure I'm doing it right. Hands down the best PT experience l've ever had.

Makes the process a vastly easier therapy

Wes puts a lot of attention into the process, and keeps you involved with his great sense of humor. Though the exercises can be arduous, he makes the process a vastly easier therapy.
