Lets first start off by talking about what the pelvic floor is: The pelvic floor is made up of the muscles deep within the pelvis that support our organs and provide stability and alignment to our pelvis and trunk. These muscles control the flow of urine and bowel movement, support our organs and are important for intimacy.
If you are suffering from dizziness and balance problems, let our experienced Therapist evaluate your condition to find the specific cause of your dizziness. There are many causes to dizziness, however one of the more prominent causes is a result of an inner ear impairment. One condition specifically of the inner ear can lead to a symptom of vertigo.
Training and exercises designed to get your muscle and nervous system back in shape in order to walk better, balance better and prevent a fall from occurring. We take extreme caution to ensure your safety when doing balance therapy in order to prevent injury and maximize the ability for you to challenge your body.

I had been having consistent lower back pain and sometimes extreme pain in my hip. I was referred to Dr. Ashley Christianson, who took the time to listen to me and decide how to approach it. She spent many weeks working on my back including massage therapy and strength exercises. I am feeling so much better. Thank you Dr. Christianson!

....I highly recommend Healing Arts Physical Therapy. Margaret was my therapist and her knowledge, attitude, and approach were very much appreciated. They were especially helpful during the Covid crisis as they allowed me to tele-visit with them so I could stay at home while learning what stretches I needed to do. Big thumbs up!

I had been struggling with a knee issue for years and hadn't had much success with other therapies. Going to Healing Arts was such a great decision! You are given individual and focused care. Shawn and the rest of his staff are all so friendly and supportive and really listen to your concerns and want to truly help you feel better. I highly recommend their office!

I had a great physical therapy experience with Dr. Christiansen for shoulder issues. He was extremely knowledgeable on just about everything related to the human body and it's functions. He definitely improved my situation and mitigated the pain from my injury. The rest of the staff was very cheerful and eager to help.
Would highly recommend for any of you healing needs!

Dr. Shawn Christensen and all the staff are very warm and welcoming. I'm so excited I was able to find him and he accepts my insurance.
I have seen Dr. Christensen for a month now and he really cares about his patients and wants them to heal. He takes the time to get to know you and will focus on getting you better. I will continue to go here until I fully recover. Thank you Dr. Christensen and staff!

Ashley is a miracle worker. She is very professional and really knows her stuff. I have been to four other therapists and they did absolutely nothing for me. She had me on the road to recovery withing a few sessions. She is multi-talented and a very gifted therapist. The whole office is friendly and supportive. Very pleasant experience and I didn't want to be finished!!!

Had just one appointment and already have a little more mobility in my neck. Very hands-on, conservative approach to wellness. Informative. Listened to my ailments and answered questions. Also asked about things I hadn’t thought of which is enemy more encouraging. Very much looking forward to future visits!

I am so glad I found Healing Arts Physical Therapy! My pain is gone and my mobility is back. I had thrown my back out and could not even stand up straight. Shawn and the staff worked with me to alleviate my pain and put together exercises to strengthen my problem areas. I am feeling great and now I have a plan going forward to keep myself strong and pain free. I truly enjoyed going to physical therapy and will be going back soon to try out some of the classes and personal training. Thank you, Healing Arts!

Each person holds so much power within themselves that needs to be let out. Sometimes they just need a little nudge, a little direction, a little support, a little coaching, and the greatest things can happen. Healing Arts Physical Therapy can do that for you, the greatest place I've been to and my back is 100%
