Conditions We Treat

Common musculoskeletal problems and rehabilitation needs we evaluate and treat in Portland.

Physical therapy starts with understanding what is actually driving your symptoms.

Nick Rinard Physical Therapy evaluates musculoskeletal conditions as well as dizziness, vertigo, and balance problems in Portland. We use your history, movement, function, and symptom response to help determine an appropriate treatment direction rather than relying on a generic diagnosis-based exercise list.

Sometimes pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in an arm or leg may be influenced by the spine or another region. A mechanical evaluation can help determine whether that appears to be the case.
