This Customized Guidance Is Available To Assist You In Finding Relief.

A Message From Gabriel Dunham, PT, DPT, Owner and Founder of Your PT Doc

When it comes to living with neck and shoulder pain, many individuals we encounter share common concerns and questions:

"Why Is This Happening To Me?" "Why Am I Still Suffering From Neck And Shoulder Pain, Even After Enduring It For Six Months Or Sometimes Even Longer?"

The prevailing belief among most people is that their pain will naturally dissipate over time. They hope that one morning they will wake up, and like magic, the pain will have vanished. Unfortunately, the reality is often different, as the nagging pain persists and may worsen after six months.

Do You Find Yourself Relating To This Experience?

Another situation we frequently encounter at our physical therapy clinic is when individuals seek advice from doctors, who suggest rest and recommend painkillers to see if the pain improves. However, six weeks later, they return to the doctor with no significant improvement, only to be prescribed even stronger medications.

Have You Ever Been Caught In This Cycle?

Perhaps you feel confused because you’ve received conflicting opinions from various sources. It’s not uncommon for someone to believe they have a neck issue, only to discover that the problem lies in their shoulder. The complexity of this region often leads people to procrastinate, putting off making decisions about how to address their neck and shoulder pain. Tragically, many individuals simply accept pain as an inevitable part of life, assuming it is normal or something they must endure.

Does This Resonate With You?

We want to assure you that you do not have to accept persistent neck and shoulder pain as a permanent condition. Seeking proper assessment and treatment from a skilled professional can help you understand the root cause of your discomfort and set you on the path to recovery. Don’t let uncertainty or the fear of prolonged suffering hold you back from taking action to improve your well-being. Your health and quality of life are worth prioritizing, and we are here to guide you through finding relief from your neck and shoulder pain.

Do You Find Yourself Relating To Any Of These Experiences?

If You're Currently Living With Neck And Shoulder Pain, And It Seems To Be Lasting Longer Than You Expected, Here Are Seven Possible Reasons Why:

You initially believed the pain would resolve independently, but it persisted.
When you visited the doctor, you were advised to rest and take painkillers, but the relief was temporary, and the pain returned as soon as the medication wore off.
A family member or friend suggested that neck and shoulder pain is a natural part of aging, leading you to accept it without seeking further solutions.
You sought help from other healthcare professionals or physical therapists in the past, but their interventions didn’t provide the desired relief.
You attempted using heating pads or TENS devices, hoping they would alleviate the pain, but they proved ineffective.
Due to the severity of your neck or shoulder pain, you decided to rest, but the pain continues to bother you daily.
To find relief, you opted for massages, which felt nice and relaxing at the moment, but didn’t offer a long-term solution for your pain.

We are here to assist you if any of these scenarios sound familiar. We invite you to book a call with one of our skilled physical therapists, who can provide valuable advice and help identify potential solutions for your condition. The fact that you’ve already tried various approaches means we have a clearer understanding of what hasn’t worked, bringing us closer to finding what truly does work for you.

Many individuals ask:

"What Can Be Done To Alleviate Neck And Shoulder Pain?"

Well, here are four actionable steps you can take:

Make a decisive choice to seek help: It’s common for people to put off addressing their neck and shoulder pain, assuming it will naturally disappear over time. However, if you find yourself still enduring discomfort after six months or experiencing worsening symptoms, it’s essential to take action.
Engage in the right exercises: One of the most effective ways to ease neck and/or shoulder pain is by performing a tailored series of progressive exercises. A qualified Physical Therapist can provide you with exercises that reduce pain and restore your mobility, preventing future problems from arising.
Improve sitting and sleeping posture: Avoid exacerbating your neck and shoulder pain by being mindful of your posture while sitting and sleeping. Poor posture can contribute to painful necks and tense shoulders. Appropriate strengthening exercises and hands-on treatment can help you swiftly regain proper posture and overall well-being.

What People Say About Your PT Doc

I have been taking my son to Dr. Gabriel for the last year. He is a soccer player and has had injuries to his knees and his hip. Each time Dr. Gabriel diagnosed the injury and prescribed a course of physical therapy to bring my son back to full strength. He also gave my son exercises to do at home to decrease the possibility of similar injuries reoccurring. I highly recommend using Dr. Gabriel and we will continue to do so.

5 star review without a doubt the best PT doc in town. I was having trouble just getting out of bed and putting my shoes on in the morning, but after just the first visit Dr Gabriel had me feeling better already in JUST ONE VISIT ! Now 4 visits later I am able to return to my daily life. And ultimately get back into playing soccer 💪 Thanks Doc.

Having gone to quite a few PTs over the years, I can confidently say Dr. Dunham is exceptional! I suffered from back and shoulder pains for several years before working with him, but he was able to accurately diagnose my problem and create a plan to help fix major muscular imbalances I’d been dealing with. For the first time in a long time I have zero chronic pain and can return to doing all the activities I love without worrying about injury. Can’t say enough great things about this place or their personalized approach! For anyone suffering from chronic pain or sports related injuries, Dr. Dunham is your man.
