Polson, Ronan and the Mission Valley
Why Mission Valley patients choose video.
The Mission Valley is wide-open hay and cattle country under the Mission Mountains, with Polson at the south end of Flathead Lake and small towns strung along Highway 93. Cherry orchards climb the hills near Finley Point, and July brings the cherry festival and a lot of lake traffic. Many families farm, work in town and raise kids all at once, and specialist visits can mean an hour or more each way. Pregnancy pain, postpartum recovery, constipation and low back pain bring many people in the valley to book.
One-on-one with Dr. Elana Shalem, PT, DPT (CAPP-OB), licensed in Montana: a 60-minute evaluation, then 45-minute follow-ups.
