Why Your Injury Keeps Coming Back
If you’re like most people we see, this isn’t the first thing you’ve tried. You rested. You followed YouTube rehab videos. You went to physical therapy where you were rushed through generic exercises.
Maybe you even tried injections or pain meds. And yet… the same issue keeps showing up. That’s because most approaches focus on where it hurts, not why it’s happening.
Pain is usually the symptom—not the problem.
Until you identify what’s actually driving the issue (how you move, load, recover, and train), the pain may calm down temporarily—but it almost always returns once you get back to normal life or training. That’s the injury–reinjury cycle.
Our approach starts by finding the root cause and building a clear, outcome-based plan to fix it—so you’re not stuck managing the same issue year after year.
How To Eliminate Pain With Shooting Your Bow Without Medications, Surgery, Or Skipping Your Shooting Sessions
One day you’re out on the archery range shooting your bow when all of a sudden you get hit with what feels like a lightning bolt of pain. You think to yourself “Oh man, this really hurts, but I’m sure it’ll feel better by tomorrow.”
You wake up hopeful the next morning, but the pain when shooting your bow is still there. It continues to bug you for several weeks, and now you can barely shoot your bow without terrible pain.
Naturally, you go to the doctor’s office and they tell you to ice it and rest, and to stop shooting your bow because it’s “bad for your body,” and they might even give you some anti-inflammatories or pain medication. Even though you don’t want to stop shooting, you do it because it’s what they recommended.
Eventually you start to feel a little better, so you feel like you’re ready to start training for archery season again. Unfortunately, once you start to get back into it, the pain with shooting your bow starts again, and you’re left frustrated and unsure of what to do.
This Is The Vicious Cycle That Many Archers Find Themselves In.
How Are We Different?
If You’re Currently Living With An Archery Injury, Here’s 7 More Reasons Why It Could Be Lasting Longer Than It Should:
- You thought it would go away on it’s own – but it didn’t.
- You went to the doctor who told you to rest and take painkillers – but the pills did nothing to help you, and as soon as they wore off, the pain struck again.
- A family member, or friend, told you that everybody gets pain with shooting their bow at some point, and that you’re just going to have to deal with it or dial down your poundage.
- You tried other Healthcare Professionals, or a physical therapist in the past, but nothing they said or did seemed to help.
- You tried YouTube exercises but they either didn’t do a thing, or made your pain worse.
- You thought it would be a good idea to rest because your pain was so bad, but all that did was make you feel even more stiff and tight with shooting your bow the next time you went to the range.
- You decided to get a few “massages and adjustments” hoping that would fix the pain, but all they did was feel nice and relaxing, and didn’t do anything to fix it long term.

EXCELLENT Based on 123 reviews Posted on Google Devan PavlicekTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I saught out a PT after a reaggravated a long term back injury in an attempt to properly address the issue and come out with a long term recovery plan. After working with Matt for the last couple months, I can wholeheartedly say it was the best decision I made and I cannot recommend Matt enough. From day one, we sat down and assessed the injury and came up with a gameplan. I made clear my intentions and what I was looking for and Matt listened and outlined a complete timeline of what he looked to do each session, and summarized the recovery from start to finish. Throughout the process, he was always intently looking to me for feedback to ensure I was getting everything I was looking for and inquiring if I wanted to pivot or tweak the scope of a session. Not only is Matt extremely attentive, he's very communicative and willing to give video feedback in real time and correct form/technique to better serve you in long term recovery. Dont hesitate to give Matt and Total Pursuit a try!Posted on Google Aaron BergerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are thinking about going anywhere else, don’t. Dr. Matt is awesome. He will work with you in all aspects of your recovery and get you back to where you want to be and more! I went to Dr. Matt for pre-treatment for my upcoming Shoulder surgery. After only three days, I was at 90% rotation and no pain whatsoever and back on my feet. The work we did previous to my surgery has decreased my recovery by months!Posted on Google Clint ReedTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to see Dr.Matt after struggling with shoulder and bicep pain in my right arm. I had very limited use of my right arm without pain. Dr. Matt assessed my concern.we came up with a game plan on treatment, and within a couple weeks I regained 90% of the motion back without any pain. I am confident that when our treatment plan wraps up I will have full motion completely pain free.Posted on Google Steve RothTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had the chance to get to know Dr. Matt Buch through our local networking group, and he’s someone who really stands out for his character and integrity. Matt is the kind of person who is genuine, honest, and always looking to do right by others. He shows up consistently, supports the people around him, and brings a high level of professionalism to everything he does. You can tell he truly cares about helping people and takes pride in his work. Even though I haven’t personally used his services, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him based on the way he carries himself and the reputation he’s built. If you’re looking for someone you can trust, Matt and Total Pursuit are a great choice.Posted on Google WesTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I was born with infant torticollis and I had neck and middle back pains along with my hips needing to be adjusted. Been going to the chiropractor for 16 years and I feel way more relief now that I have been seeing Dr. Matt. Even after this huge blizzard we just had, I would normally feel a lot of lower back pain and I had minimal soreness after shoveling and snow blowing the last couple days. Would highly recommend! 👍🏻Posted on Google Jonathan ValdezTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed help. Had a bad sciatic episode this past winter where walking was a chore. With Dr buch's expertise and the exercises we worked on, I was able to enjoy the latter part of the ice fishing season pain free. A true professional, and a student of his craft, I would highly recommend total pursuit to anyone dealing with musculoskeletal issues. Thank you Matt!Posted on Google Kymberly KlimekTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Your body will thank you for seeing Dr. Matt and the team at Total Pursuit Physical Therapy & Performance. Highly recommend them!Posted on Google Randy PaffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Matt customized my therapy to really fit my progress and goals. I could not sleep on my shoulder and was in pain with simple tasks such as putting on a jacket or backpack. I am nearly pain free now and my strength is coming back as well. I am 61 and again participating in activities I thought I may have to give up such as bow hunting. Thanks MattPosted on Google Kurt NiskaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr Matt is exceptional! I herniated two discs in my lower back and went through 8 months of insurance approved PT through my doctor, including three rounds of steroid treatments (two oral and one spinal). While I certainly had made progress and appreciated the care I received, I had no idea how to avoid injury again or what to do next. After months of searching, I met Dr Matt at a wellness event and booked a consultation. How wonderful to find someone willing to guide an ordinary Joe to strengthen and rehabilitate beyond simply being functional! Dr Matt is patient, responsive, thorough, and clearly explains what we’re doing and how it applies. Thank you, Dr Matt, for helping me get stronger and regain confidence in what my body is capable of doing. I know my journey is not complete but I am grateful to have you and your expertise in my corner.Posted on Google Brandon HarrellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I went to see Dr. Matt after struggling with back issues for years and finding little relief through traditional treatments. From the initial assessment, he took a thorough and thoughtful approach. Instead of just addressing symptoms, he focused on improving strength and stability in the areas surrounding my back that had been neglected due to long-term pain. The results have been tremendous. I’m stronger, more stable, and finally moving in the right direction. I highly recommend Dr. Matt to anyone dealing with ongoing issues.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
