CONDITIONS TREATED
Understanding pain by understanding how you move.
Common Issues We Help People Work Through.
At STL Physical Therapy, we don’t just look at the place where something hurts — we look at how your whole body is moving. We focus on getting to the root cause of the problem, not just treating the symptoms. This allows us to fix the problem and ensure it doesn’t come back.
Knee Pain
Knee pain often shows up during squatting, stairs, running, or sport. We look at how the knee works with the hip and ankle and rebuild strength and movement patterns that support everyday and athletic activity.
Foot & Ankle Pain
Plantar Fasciitis/Foot and ankle pain can make walking, standing, or running uncomfortable. We focus on improving mobility, foot strength, and how the body loads through the entire leg.
Sciatica / Low Back Pain
Sciatica and back discomfort often relate to how the hips, core, and spine share load. We help restore movement, strength, and positions that feel safe and controlled.
Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain shows up with reaching, lifting, throwing, or overhead positions. We assess how the shoulder moves with the upper back and trunk, then rebuild strength and control.
Hip Pain
Hip pain can come from tightness, weakness, or how the body rotates and transfers force. We help improve strength and mobility so movement feels natural again.
IT Band Pain
IT band discomfort is often tied to how the hip and knee absorb force during running or squatting. We work on strength, control, and mechanics to reduce irritation.
Neck Pain & Headaches
Neck pain and tension-related headaches can show up with poor movement patterns, stress, or posture. We focus on mobility, strength, and habits that support healthier movement.
Dizziness
We help identify movement patterns or balance challenges that make dizziness worse and build strategies for stability and confidence.
Concussions
A safe, structured plan that supports a gradual return to daily activity, school, and sport.
Tennis Elbow
Tennis elbow affects gripping, lifting, and rotation. We work on forearm strength, control, and mechanics during sport and daily tasks.
Golfer’s Elbow
Golfer’s elbow shows up with gripping, pulling, and rotational movements. We focus on building strength and improving arm and trunk coordination.
Tendinitis
Tendinitis often improves with the right balance of strength, load management, and recovery. We guide you through safe progressions that rebuild durability.
