Headaches
Arthritis
There are over 100 different types of arthritis. Arthritis can occur for many reasons, including aging, “wear and tear,” autoimmune disease, trauma, and inflammatory disease. Arthritis usually affects the bones and the joints; however, it can affect other parts of the body, such as muscles, ligaments, tendons, and some internal organs. Two of the more common types of arthritis, Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid Arthritis are discussed below.
Fibromyalgia
Fibromyalgia is distinguished by pain and tender points on both sides and the upper and lower portions of the body. There are 18 tender point locations including areas at the back of the head, upper back and shoulders, neck and upper chest, elbows, hips, and knees. When pressure is applied to the muscles and tissues at these locations, pain is felt.
Plantar Fasciitis
Primary Care
You will need a referral from your physician or medical provider (primary care doctor, nurse practitioner, orthopedic surgeon, podiatrist, chiropractor, etc.) to have your insurance pay for your physical therapy treatment.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Fibromyalgia develops most frequently in people between the ages of 20 and 50, although it can occur at any age, including during childhood. The risk of developing fibromyalgia appears to increase with age. Fibromyalgia occurs more often in women than in men. People with fibromyalgia have a tendency to have other conditions as well, such as chronic fatigue syndrome, depression, endometriosis, headaches, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), lupus, osteoarthritis, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), restless leg syndrome, sleep apnea, and rheumatoid arthritis.
Urinary Incontinence
Urinary incontinence is as concerning as it can be inconvenient and embarrassing. Urinary incontinence is the involuntary loss of urine. It is not a disease, but rather a symptom. There are many causes of incontinence; some are more serious than... Read More

Ultrasound
Ultrasound therapy is used to minimize muscle pain and movement dysfunction. Therapeutic ultrasound uses sound waves to deliver deep heat to the treated tissues. The treatments may help reduce stiffness, swelling, and pain, increase circulation, and promote pain-free movement. Ultrasound... Read More
MRI
X-rays are used to see the condition of your bones and joints, and to identify areas of arthritis or bone spurs. The tissues that surround the joint do not show up on an X-ray. In this case, a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scan may be requested to get a better view of the soft tissue structures, such as ligaments, tendons, and cartilage.
X-Rays
Chemotherapy
An injury, illness, chemotherapy, bed rest, inactivity, or disease may change the amount of control that you have over moving your body. Alterations in your health status may result in poor endurance, decreased muscle movement, paralysis, and loss of balance,... Read More

Orthopedics
"While my areas of special focus are manual therapy and orthopedics, I enjoy treating a wide variety of conditions... and people. I enjoy working with my hands, but I most enjoy helping others. It’s as rewarding as it is interesting."
Sciatica
The sciatic nerve is the thickest and longest nerve in your body. The sciatic nerve extends from your lower back down to your feet. If the sciatic nerve is compressed or inflamed, a painful condition called Sciatica can result. Symptoms... Read More
Arthroscopy
Arthroscopic Surgery is a procedure that allows surgeons to see, diagnose, and treat problems inside a joint. The procedure, also called an Arthroscopy, requires only small incisions and is guided by a miniature viewing instrument or scope. Before arthroscopy existed,... Read More
Minimally Invasive Surgery
Generally, traditional open joint surgeries take several months to heal, depending on the joint. Minimally invasive surgery and arthroscopic surgery use smaller incisions and typically heal in a shorter amount of time, from several weeks to a few months. Your doctor may restrict your activity for a short time following your surgery. In most cases, rehabilitation is recommended to mobilize and strengthen the joint.
Joint Replacement
In advanced arthritis, the damaged joint can be replaced with an artificial one. Artificial joints are made of metal, plastic, ceramics, or a combination of the materials. The material selected depends on the reason for the surgery, as well as which joint is being replaced. Joint replacement can provide significant pain relief and improved mobility.
Arthritis Surgery
Recovery from arthritis surgery is very individualized. Your recovery time will depend on the extent of your condition, the joint that was involved, and the type of surgery that you had. Your doctor will let you know what you may expect.
Orthopedic Surgery
If you’ve had an orthopedic problem, sports injury, or orthopedic surgery, including total knee replacement, you likely need rehabilitation. While these are different situations, they each require rehabilitative care to get you back to doing what you love. At Paula Dillon Mays Therapy Clinics, our therapists take an approach that is careful, individualized, and based on proven methods.
Bunions
A bunionette is a bump that occurs near the base of the little toe. They are not as common as bunions, a similar condition that develops near the base of the big toe. However, people with bunionettes often have bunions... Read More
Arthroscopy
Hip Replacement
When you need surgery to replace a damaged or diseased hip, some orthopedic surgeons have advanced training to perform anterior hip arthroplasty, also known as the direct anterior approach to hip replacement. This procedure is considered less invasive, as it... Read More
Knee Replacement
At Paula Dillon Mays Therapy Clinics, we know that no two pain syndromes or cases of physical impairment are the same. We take care to match you with a physical therapist who knows what you’re going through and understands your condition, whether that be a sports-related injury, total knee replacement, tendonitis, or cancer pain.
Reconstructive Surgery
"In high school, I sustained full thickness tears of my MCL, PCL, ACL, and meniscus in a skiing accident and also was hit by a driver who ran a red light. I underwent reconstructive surgery for my knee and participated in substantial amounts of physical therapy after each accident. I was greatly helped by my physical therapist and I chose to commit my career to helping people the way I was helped.

Aquatic Therapy
Occupational or physical therapists can help you strengthen the muscles surrounding your joint. The resulting added joint stability can help relieve pain. Aquatic therapy in a heated pool can be especially soothing. In addition, the buoyancy of the water takes stress off the joints while exercising, and the resistance of the water can help strengthening efforts. Your therapists may also apply heat to treat stiffness, and ice to decrease pain. They may recommend splints, walkers, or canes to help relieve stress on your joints. The therapists will instruct you on how to do your daily activities, such as housework and meal preparation, in a manner that puts less stress on your joints.
Manual Therapy
At Paula Dillon Mays Therapy Clinics, our spine therapy usually starts by trying to relieve the pain, which allows our therapists to help you stretch, strengthen, and stabilize the injured area. In addition, our team has advanced training with manual therapy techniques, which help align the spine while promoting blood flow and oxygenation and decreasing pain and inflammation.

Foot Orthotics
Foot orthotics fall into three broad categories: those that primarily attempt to change foot function, those that are primarily protective in nature, and those that combine functional control and protection.

Podiatric Deformities
Orthotic devices are often used in the treatment of children with foot deformities, and are very effective. Most podiatric physicians recommend that children with these deformities be placed in orthotics not long after they begin to walk in order to stabilize the foot. The devices can be put directly into a standard shoe, or an athletic shoe.
Podiatric Surgery
Orthotics differ from commercially made devices, such as cushioned heel cups or insoles for shoes. These are sold over-the-counter in drug stores. The custom made orthotics, however, are devices made specifically to meet individual needs. Doctors of podiatric medicine and orthopedic surgeons often prescribe orthotics as a conservative treatment for many foot problems or as a method of control after certain types of foot surgery and their use is a highly successful, practical approach to treatment.
