Pain Relief
“I couldn’t move the pain was so bad”
Pain is a warning signal, like a stop sign. It is the most frequent reason that patients seek medical attention.
Far too often, the medical field is quick to prescribe opiates and send their patients out the door. This may control pain for a period of time, but it simply addresses the symptoms without addressing the severe functional limitations that caused the pain.
Northern Edge Physical Therapy understands the challenges faced by those suffering and are seeking chronic pain treatment programs. We develop. . .
Function Recovery
We treat a range of issues from limb paralysis to arthritis, incontinence to painful intercourse. What you need to know is that you are not alone. We have a team that has helped people just like you.
Despite the body’s amazing ability to regenerate, external factors such as chronic inflammation, advanced age, or pinched nerves may keep the body from fully healing.
Our therapists at Northern Edge Physical Therapy are highly trained in kinesiology, the study of the mechanics of body movement, and will help reverse inflammation and treat trigger points. . .

Athletic Performance
Top performing athletes are defined by mere seconds and inches. Tiny differences are what separate a touchdown from a tackle, a ski champion from a fall, and an Iditarod winner from a scratch. That’s why athletes looking to get an edge, come to Northern Edge Physical Therapy.
Our physical therapy team will put together an integrated training regiment that helps elite athletes prepare for upcoming competitions, maintains fitness levels, and acts as a preventative measure against potential injuries.
Our therapists identify the tiny biomechanical flaws that can separate regular athletes from elite performers. As movement specialists, we are trained to identify and correct inefficiencies in the body that can not only prevent injury but improve performance.

What Makes Us Better
Top 10 Reasons Clients See Us
10. Worker's Compensation
Whether it is from lifting heavy objects or even sitting at a desk for 8 hours a day, repeated stress at work can lead to pain and inflamation. The good news is if you were injured at work, chances are, you are covered by worker’s compensation. Alaska’s law requires most employer’s to cover worker’s compensation which typically pays 100% of your treatment at Northern Edge Physical Therapy.
9. Concussions
Confusion, headaches, balance issues, nausea, light senstivity, fatigue, and more are all short term symptoms of a concussion. Every concussion is considered a serious injury.
Concussions or mild traumatic brain injury can result in long term neurological disabilities. Seeking rehabilitation from physical therapists who treat concussion patients should be your top priority.
8. Vertigo
The challenge with dizziness is proper testing to determine whether the problems involve the inner ear (vestibular system), neurological system or postural problems affecting balance. Lack of specific diagnosis and treatment may be the reason some dizziness tend to become chronic.
7. Knee Pain
Most people feel like they have tried everything to make knee pain go away but nothing provides long term relief.
At NEPT, we believe that pain is not the issue. Pain is a warning signal, like a stop sign.
6. Pelvic Floor Therapy
Many clients have a difficult time bringing up pelvic floor issues as they are often regarded as embarrassing or irrelevant. Given the intimate nature of these symptoms, many people only seek treatment after symptoms are nearly unbearable or full-fledged.
The good news is that there is hope for people struggling with pelvic floor dysfunction and associated pain symptoms. We offer specialized programs to help achieve pelvic pain relief.
5. Post-Op Rehab
How quickly you recover from surgery is 100% dependent on the physical therapist you choose. Interview us before surgery to find out the success you can have.
As a postoperative patient, you have the right to choose where you receive physical therapy. At Northern Edge Physical Therapy, we understand that making the right choice can be a difficult decision, which is why we are committed to ensuring that every patient receives personalized, evidence-based treatment designed to meet their individual needs and goals.

3. Headaches/Migraines
Primary headaches – Includes the main types of headaches: Migraines, Cluster, Tension headaches. Migraines typically involve a prodrome which is a signal of the oncoming headache.
2. Shoulder Pain
Most people feel like they have tried everything to make shoulder pain go away but nothing provides long term relief.
At NEPT, we believe that pain is not the issue. Pain is a warning signal, like a stop sign.
Far too often, the medical field is quick to prescribe opiates and send their patients out the door. This may control pain for a period of time, but it simply addresses the symptoms without addressing the severe functional limitations that caused the pain.
1. Back Pain
At Northern Edge Physical Therapy, we first address where the pain is originating from. Most often pain is not from where you feel it, but is related to muscles and movement in other parts of the body that are not functioning correctly. Once we have interpreted your pain signals, we can then proceed with treatment.
