How long will it take to recover from my [back/knee/shoulder] injury in Harrisonburg?
Every injury and patient is unique. During your free discovery visit at our Harrisonburg clinic, Dr. Bledsoe will perform a comprehensive evaluation to determine the root cause of your issue and provide a realistic timeline for recovery. Unlike other providers who might give you a one-size-fits-all answer, we create personalized treatment plans based on your specific condition, fitness level, and goals. Most patients begin feeling improvements within 2-3 weeks, with complete resolution typically requiring 8-12 weeks of consistent care for chronic conditions.
What makes Valley Spine Chiropractic‘s approach to sports injuries different from other Harrisonburg clinics?
Most Harrisonburg clinics either focus exclusively on chiropractic adjustments OR rehabilitation exercises. At RSM Sports Medicine & Rehab, Dr. Bledsoe combines his expertise as both a Doctor of Chiropractic AND a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) to deliver comprehensive care. This integrated approach means we don’t just relieve your pain – we identify movement dysfunctions, correct them through precise adjustments, then rebuild strength and stability through customized exercises. This complete system is why our patients experience longer-lasting results compared to traditional treatment methods.
Do I need a referral from my doctor to get treatment for back pain in Harrisonburg?
No referral is needed to visit RSM Sports Medicine & Rehab in Harrisonburg. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Dr. Bledsoe can evaluate and treat your back pain directly. We’re happy to coordinate with your primary care physician if you have one, but you can schedule your free discovery visit immediately without waiting for a referral. This direct access means you can start addressing your back pain sooner rather than later.
Can you treat my chronic [neck/back/knee] pain if I’ve had it for years?
Absolutely. Many of our Harrisonburg patients come to us after suffering for years with chronic pain that other treatments couldn’t resolve. Dr. Bledsoe specializes in identifying the underlying movement patterns and muscle imbalances that perpetuate chronic pain – issues that standard treatments often miss. Even if you’ve tried chiropractic care, physical therapy, or pain management elsewhere without success, our integrated approach often provides breakthrough results. During your free discovery visit, we’ll determine if our methods can help your specific condition and give you an honest assessment.

How do I know if my headaches are related to neck problems that you can treat?
Many headaches that Harrisonburg residents suffer from are cervicogenic – meaning they originate from issues in the neck. Signs that your headaches may benefit from our treatment include: pain that starts in the neck or base of the skull and radiates forward, headaches that worsen with certain neck positions, tension in the upper shoulders and neck, or headaches that develop after long periods of desk work or screen time. During your free discovery visit at our Harrisonburg clinic, Dr. Bledsoe will conduct a thorough assessment to determine if your headaches are related to neck dysfunction and create a treatment plan accordingly.
Do you provide treatment for workplace injuries or ergonomic issues?
Yes, we regularly help Harrisonburg professionals overcome pain from workplace ergonomic issues. Whether you’re experiencing neck pain from computer work, back pain from prolonged sitting, or repetitive strain injuries, our approach addresses both immediate relief and long-term prevention.
