Our therapeutic techniques are both fun and effective, aimed at relieving pain and discomfort while promoting strength, mobility, and flexibility. Our goal is to enable you to begin living a life free from the limitations imposed by physical ailments.

What are common physical therapy techniques?

Physical therapy encompasses a range of techniques designed to promote healing, mobility, and function. Some common techniques include manual therapy, where therapists use their hands to apply pressure and manipulate muscles; joint mobilization to enhance joint function and reduce pain; and therapeutic exercises, which are custom-designed activities aimed at improving strength, flexibility, and endurance. Additionally, modalities such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, and heat/ice treatments may be used to decrease inflammation, improve circulation, and alleviate pain. Each technique is chosen based on the individual needs of the patient, ensuring a targeted approach to rehabilitation.

How can physical therapy help with chronic pain?

Physical therapy is a powerful tool in the management of chronic pain. Through a combination of strengthening and stretching exercises, physical therapy can enhance mobility and function, reducing the overall burden of pain. Therapists work closely with patients to identify specific areas contributing to discomfort, such as muscle imbalances or posture issues, and create a targeted treatment plan. Stress management techniques and patient education further empower patients, enabling them to take an active role in their healing process. Consistent physical therapy sessions can offer relief from chronic pain and help prevent further injury.

How long does physical therapy take?

Some patients may see improvement after a few sessions, while others may require more extensive therapy. Our therapists will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan and set realistic goals. Generally, the duration of therapy depends on the severity of the condition and the individual’s response to treatment.

How often should I see a physical therapist?

Your physical therapist will determine the optimal schedule to achieve your goals. Typically, sessions may be scheduled 2-3 times per week initially, and then gradually decrease as you progress. With every phase of therapy, our therapists continually assess progress and adapt plans to ensure effectiveness.

What should I expect during my first appointment?

During your initial appointment, our physical therapist will conduct a thorough evaluation, including a medical history review, physical examination, and assessment of your movement patterns. They will discuss your concerns, and goals, and develop a customized treatment plan. You'll also learn about exercises you can perform at home to augment your in-clinic therapy sessions.

Is physical therapy safe for older adults?

Yes, physical therapy is safe and beneficial for older adults. It can help improve mobility, strength, balance, and reduce the risk of falls. Physical therapists can tailor exercise programs to accommodate age-related changes and specific health conditions. This tailored approach ensures that each session contributes positively to overall health maintenance and improvement.
