We are proud to partner with the Radford University dance program to offer movement and injury screens to their freshman students!

Total Motion hosted another continuing education course earlier this month at our Radford location. We are proud to partner with industry leader Evidence In Motion to bring top notch PT content to SWVA. Three of our clinicians participated in the Management of Lower Quarter Injuries. We are always looking for ways to take our care to the next level to ensure we are the best choice for PT services in the New River Valley!

As school starts back in a few weeks, make sure your child's backpack is fitting them properly. The bottom of the backpack should be near waist level, and make sure they do not fall into the habit of carrying it over one shoulder! Also, be aware of the load they carry to and from school, trying to minimize the weight of the backpack.

Sleep dysfunction is a greater predictor of having pain than having pain is of sleep dysfunction (Finan et. al, 2013). We can offer you strategies to break this cycle and help you better understand your pain experience.

Heel pain isn’t always plantar fasciitis. There are other structures in the foot that cause similar symptoms. Sometimes pain is referred from a different body region altogether. Our skilled Doctors of PT are trained to effectively evaluate and treat the source of your heel pain.

What exactly is pain?

The British Pain Society defines pain as "An unpleasant sensory and emotional experience associated with, or resembling that associated with, actual or potential tissue damage”.

Pain is a perception of the brain and many factors contribute. We can help you understand your pain and most importantly show you strategies to overcome it!

An object in motion tends to stay in motion. Don’t let that nagging injury, ache, or pain keep you from staying active and being present with your family and friends. Let us help you get back in the game of life.
