Physical Therapy

Rehabilitative exercise therapy aimed to increase healing, strength, & range of motion.

Physical therapy and physiotherapy are restorative in nature aimed to regain functional movement and ability. Treatment plans can incorporate additional modalities that aid in pain reduction and healing to make this a comfortable process.

Each session is tailored to individual needs and abilities. We also provide education materials and guidance on how to routinely exercise/stretch safely at home in conjunction with treatment in our office.

Physical Therapy is typically needed for those with injuries, neurological and musculoskeletal conditions, recent surgery, or anyone experiencing limited physical functioning.

Injuries:

Motor Vehicle Accidents

Work Accidents

Sports Injuries

Minor strains, sprains, pulls

Falls

Symptoms of limited physical functioning:

Inability to raise arms above a certain height
Difficulty with bending, lifting, carrying, or pushing
Limited turning of the neck
Pain in joints, muscle tightness
Unable to stand, sit, or walk for long periods
Struggles with getting up or sitting down
Issues with hand grip/hand pain
Diminished ability to engage in everyday tasks such as grooming, dressing/putting shoes on, getting in/out of the shower, reaching, etc.

Range of Motion Exam: A quantitative study that measures the limits of mobility (range of motion) across the body collecting tangible data. The initial study results create the baseline that improvement is compared with. A re-study is conducted at the end of each treatment plan period to assess progress.
Rehabilitation exercise: Monitored and safe exercise routines that are structured and target specific areas of need (balance, strengthening, etc.) and regions (hip, shoulder, back, leg, etc.).
Stretching: This one is familiar to most people, but unfortunately not many do it. In Physical Therapy stretching is critical to improve range of motion, restore functioning, and prevent injuries.
Modalities: These are alternative therapies that may be recommended to supplement your plan. Ultrasound therapy, electric stimulation (TENS), and Pulse Electric Magnetic Field Therapy (PEMF) are examples.
