🦵 Shin Splints? Let’s Talk.
Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C.
🏃‍♀️ Runner or jumper — quick check:
Do any of these sound familiar?
⬇️ Comment YES if you’ve felt:
✔ Pain along the front of your lower leg (shin)
✔ Pain that shows up at the start of a workout, then fades…
✔ Pain that comes back during cooldown or later that day
If so, you may be dealing with shin splints — a common overuse injury we see in runners and jumping athletes.
What Causes Shin Splints?
Shin splints often develop when the lower leg is overloaded too quickly, including:
• Sudden increases in running distance, intensity, or duration
• Running on hard or uneven surfaces
• Worn-out or inappropriate shoes (shock absorption matters!)
Early on, symptoms may ease during exercise. As the condition worsens, pain can persist during activity and last for hours or even days afterward.
⚠️ Important:
Some conditions can mimic shin splints, including:
• Stress fractures
• Exertional compartment syndrome
• Vascular conditions
That’s why proper evaluation matters.
How to Help Prevent Shin Splints
✔ Avoid sudden training changes
✔ Replace running shoes every 300–500 miles
✔ Use proper footwear or orthotics if needed
✔ Follow a structured strengthening and stretching program
How Physical Therapy Helps
At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, we help by:
✔ Identifying the true source of pain
✔ Prescribing targeted strengthening (like eccentric heel raises)
✔ Improving balance and lower-leg control
✔ Guiding a safe return-to-running program
👉 If shin pain is slowing you down, call 503-537-7070 to schedule a FREE injury screening and get answers before it becomes a bigger issue.

🔥 **Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training in Action!** 🔥

Want to build strength without lifting heavy? 💪 Blood Flow Restriction therapy allows you to gain muscle and improve strength using lighter weights — making it perfect for post-surgical rehab, joint pain, or anyone looking to level up their workout safely.

By strategically limiting blood flow during exercise, BFR helps stimulate muscle growth, improve endurance, and accelerate recovery — all while reducing stress on your joints.

Whether you're recovering from injury or pushing toward new fitness goals, BFR could be a game changer in your program.

📅 Ready to see if it’s right for you? Schedule your evaluation with **AOPT** today and let’s get you moving stronger and smarter!

🏃‍♂️ Returning to Running After Injury? Read This First.

After an injury or period of inactivity, the way you return to running matters just as much as when. Doing too much too soon is one of the most common reasons runners get reinjured.

⚠️ Important reminder:
If you’re recovering from surgery or a more serious injury, always make sure you’re cleared by your doctor or physical therapist before starting a return-to-run program.

✅ Smart Tips to Avoid Reinjury

✔ Increase weekly mileage by no more than 10%
✔ Rest adequately between runs
✔ Start on level surfaces or a treadmill
✔ Shorten your stride & slightly increase cadence
✔ Prioritize sleep and nutrition
✔ Replace running shoes every 300–400 miles

👂 Listen to Your Body

🟢 Normal (“good”) signs
• Muscle soreness
• Joint soreness that resolves within 24 hours
• Mild stiffness that eases after ~10 minutes

🔴 Red flags (“bad” pain)
• Pain that wakes you up at night
• Pain that worsens during activity
• Pain that changes your running form

If you notice red flags — stop and get checked before pushing through.

🏁 Return-to-Running Progression

✔ Phase I: Pain-free fast walking
✔ Phase II: Plyometric readiness
✔ Phase III: Walk/jog intervals on level ground
✔ Run every other day with cross-training in between

Progress only when each phase is completed without pain.

💙 At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, we help runners return safely and confidently with individualized plans — not guesswork.

👟 What Kind of Sneaker Is Right for You?
Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C.
Be honest — when you buy sneakers, do you choose based on color and style… or what actually supports your body? 👀
🦶 Here’s the thing:
A lot of joint and back pain starts from the ground up. If your feet aren’t supported correctly, extra stress travels to your knees, hips, and spine.
⬇️ Comment the number that fits you best:
1️⃣ Normal / Medium Arch
✔ Slight inward roll to absorb shock
✔ Most common foot type
👟 Best match: Stability shoes with mild support
________________________________________
2️⃣ Flat / Low Arch
✔ Excessive inward rolling (overpronation)
✔ Often linked to knee or shin pain
👟 Best match: Stability or motion-control shoes
________________________________________
3️⃣ High Arch
✔ Weight stays toward the outside of the foot
✔ Less natural shock absorption
👟 Best match: Neutral cushioned shoes
________________________________________
Bonus: Gait Matters Too
👣 Overpronation → Stability or motion-control shoes
👣 Neutral gait → Neutral or light stability shoes
(Your foot type + how you move both matter.)
How Physical Therapy Helps
At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, we look at:
✔ Foot posture
✔ Gait mechanics
✔ Strength & mobility up the chain
✔ Whether shoes or orthotics could help
👉 Not sure what shoe is right for you?
Call 503-537-7070 to schedule a FREE injury screening and ask a physical therapist — before pain starts.

🦶 Achilles Pain? Don’t Ignore This.
Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C.
🏃‍♂️ Quick check — comment YES if any of these sound familiar:
✔ Pain or stiffness in the Achilles when you first start walking
✔ Tight calves that never seem to loosen up
✔ Pain or swelling at the back of the ankle
✔ Pain that’s worse with running, jumping, or activity
If you said YES, you may be dealing with Achilles tendinopathy — a common condition that affects both active and inactive individuals.
📊 Did you know?
• ~24% of athletes experience Achilles tendon issues
• Up to 50% of runners will have Achilles pain at some point
________________________________________
Common Risk Factors
• Tight or weak calf muscles
• Foot mechanics or arch issues
• Improper or worn-out footwear
• Sudden changes in training or activity
• Higher body weight increasing tendon load
________________________________________
Signs & Symptoms to Watch For
• Tenderness along the Achilles tendon
• Pain and stiffness with walking
• Calf tightness
• Swelling near the heel
________________________________________
What Should You Do?
🟢 Acute (recent) pain:
✔ Rest and ice
✔ Avoid “pushing through” pain
✔ Gradual return to activity
🔵 Chronic or recurring pain:
This is where physical therapy matters most.
________________________________________
How Physical Therapy Helps
At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, we:
✔ Assess strength, flexibility, and movement mechanics
✔ Address calf and Achilles loading safely
✔ Guide a gradual, pain-free return to activity
✔ Help prevent reinjury — not just calm symptoms

🌱 Getting Back to Living Starts with Movement

Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C.

A medical event — like surgery, stroke, cardiac issues, serious illness, or injury — can change more than just your health. It can affect how you move, function, and live day to day.

⬇️ Comment YES if any of this resonates:
✔ Walking feels harder than it used to
✔ Daily tasks take more effort
✔ Balance or endurance isn’t what it was
✔ You don’t feel confident moving like before

Medical care treats the event — physical therapy helps you rebuild your life after it.

💪 What Physical Therapy Focuses On

At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, recovery goes beyond pain relief. We focus on restoring function, including:
• Strength and mobility
• Balance and coordination
• Endurance for daily activities
• Walking, stairs, and transfers
• Safe movement at home and in the community

Your physical therapist starts with a comprehensive evaluation, then creates an individualized plan to support safe, effective recovery.

🚶‍♂️ Why Movement Quality Matters

After a medical event, it’s common to develop compensatory movement patterns that can:
• Increase pain
• Raise fall risk
• Limit long-term independence

Physical therapy helps retrain movement using:
✔ Targeted exercises
✔ Hands-on techniques
✔ Movement and balance retraining

This is especially important after neurological events, where relearning movement is a key part of healing.

❤️ Physical Therapy Is About More Than Recovery

It’s about helping you:
✔ Move with confidence
✔ Regain independence
✔ Return to meaningful activities
✔ Feel like yourself again

👉 If you or a loved one are recovering from a medical event, call 503-537-7070 to schedule a FREE screening or consultation with a physical therapist.

Patellar Tendinitis
Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, P.C.
Anterior knee pain can be more than just “overdoing it.” One common cause we see at Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy is patellar tendinitis, also known as jumper’s knee.
What is Patellar Tendinitis?
The patellar tendon connects your kneecap (patella) to your shin bone. Repetitive stress — especially from jumping or high-load activities — can irritate this tendon, leading to pain and inflammation. It’s commonly seen in athletes but can affect anyone with repetitive knee loading.
Common Signs & Symptoms
✔ Pain at the front of the knee, just below the kneecap
✔ Knee pain after prolonged sitting
✔ Pain with stairs, squatting, or jumping
Common Causes & Risk Factors
• Weakness in the quadriceps, hips, or core
• Tight quadriceps, hamstrings, or IT band
• Poor kneecap tracking
• Inadequate footwear
• Repetitive jumping or impact activities (basketball, volleyball, running)
How Physical Therapy Helps
At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, we treat the cause, not just the symptoms. Physical therapy for patellar tendinitis may include:
• Targeted strengthening
• Mobility and flexibility work
• Education on footwear, activity modification, and jumping mechanics
👉 If you’re experiencing knee pain or feel at risk, call 503-537-7070 to schedule a FREE injury screening.
Our goal is simple: get you back to the activities you love — pain-free.

The new year is here, spring is around the corner, and many people are heading back to the gym. 💪🌱
Getting back into exercise is a great step toward improving your health, energy, and daily routine. However, doing too much too soon can sometimes lead to overtraining injuries — aches and pains that occur when activity increases faster than your body can safely adapt.
Overtraining injuries are musculoskeletal injuries caused by sudden increases in exercise volume or intensity, and they can happen to anyone, regardless of fitness level.
Tips to Avoid Overtraining Injuries:
✔ Progress gradually — don’t increase intensity too quickly
✔ Ease into new routines or activities
✔ Take rest days seriously — your body needs them
✔ Prioritize sleep for recovery
✔ Fuel your body with proper nutrition
How can a Physical Therapist help?
At Advanced Orthopedic Physical Therapy, our physical therapists are movement experts who can:
• Assess your strength, flexibility, and endurance
• Determine whether pain is due to overtraining or something more serious
• Identify training errors or faulty movement patterns
• Improve form and biomechanics to reduce injury risk
• Create a safe, individualized plan to help you reach your fitness goals
👉 Feeling sore or unsure as you return to exercise?
Call 503-537-7070 or schedule a FREE injury screening. We’re here to help you stay active, healthy, and pain-free.
