Physical Therapy
Your physical therapy will be focused on the “whole” body not just on your injury or condition. Your physical therapist will listen to the history of your problem, before performing tests and measures that will thoroughly assess your condition.
Tests will be conducted to determine your condition
You may be tested for muscle strength, joint motion, sensory and neurological conditions, coordination and balance tests, and your movement may be observed.
Working closely with you and your doctor, the physical therapist will design for you a complete physical therapy plan that includes therapeutic exercise.
Treatment is based on your initial evaluation
Your physical therapy treatment is based on the initial evaluation findings along with ongoing reassessment and evaluation. Treatment may consist of a variety of hands-on joint and soft tissue treatment techniques, exercise techniques and pain reducing modalities.

- increase motion and strength
- reduce pain
- and most importantly, restore function.
