Neck Pain Treatment in Wasilla
“My neck was stiff. I was waking up with headaches. I needed help.”
Neck Pain
Most people feel like they have tried everything to make neck 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.

“I have had knee issues for years that I was finally ready to address. Caitlin and Micah have gone above and beyond helping me and giving relief to my condition. I went from having difficulty and extreme pain in exercising to exercising pain-free within two months. The entire staff a NE is both professional and warm. I’m definitely thankful my family has found them.”

Dr. Keith Poorbaugh
Physical Therapist
PT, ScD, OCS, CSCS, CMTPT, FAAOMPT
I have never been known to choose the easy path. During my 20+years of military service, I was fortunate enough to be deployed in two combat operations, each while serving in two of our armed forces. As a NCO in the USAF I participated in Operation Desert Shield / Storm. Later, as a commissioned officer in the US Army I participated in Operation Iraqi Freedom. Throughout my military service I learned any obstacle can be overcome.
This privilege of helping others and the blessing of being a skilled provider has inspired me to never settle for less, always striving for more knowledge and clinical skills to help clients achieve results that matter. I love being the one to help you become more confident with movement after a serious injury or surgery. I feel privileged to be your provider, you can share your entire story of how pain has become such a burden in your life. I use my 30 years of clinical experience and extensive education to help you gain a new insight about pain and healing. I firmly believe that pain is a wake up sign, it’s a ‘check engine’ light rather than a real alarm of tissue damage. I love to give clients struggling with pain a reason to try to heal again.
