Foot Pain Relief
At Northern Edge Physical Therapy, we first address where the pain is originating from.
“My whole gait was screwed up because of the pain in my foot.”
Most people feel like they have tried everything to make foot 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.
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. A person with back pain most often receives a combination of dry needling and movement therapy.
Many patients, after only a couple visits, have reported a substantial lessening of pain and a return to normalcy.

Meet Your Provider
Dr. Etta Robertson
Physical Therapist
PT, DPT
My path to becoming a physical therapist began with my family and the realization of the effect pain has on our lives. I grew up going to Chiropractic care regularly and have discovered through various experiences that there was no “quick fix” for pain. I pursued a career in Physical Therapy, graduating in 2017 with my Doctorate and began work as a travel therapist.
I enjoy educating others regarding the musculoskeletal system, and strive to personalize your care with our athletic trainers to help achieve your movement goals. Since joining Northern Edge, I am continually reminded how millimeters matter, and the influence that one restriction in the musculoskeletal system can have on our function.
My husband and I moved to Alaska for the wonderful community and access to the outdoors. We regularly go out backpacking, skiing, packrafting and exploring many places throughout the state. I feel privileged to be able to be a part of the Mat-Su Valley and assist its members with their wellness.
