Sports Specific Rehabilitation
We offer a comprehensive rehabilitation program built to suit your needs as an athlete. Whether your specialty is the 50m freestyle, the point guard, or the mid-fielder, we custom tailor a rehabilitation program to have you ready to compete at the highest level.
Manual Therapy
We believe that great physical therapy involves a hands-on approach. Our therapists have extensive years of experience and training in manual techniques in physical therapy. We have learned from and practiced with the best in the field. These are techniques that are not taught in professional programs or curriculum, but come from years of experience and continued medical education.
Post-Operative Care
Every surgical procedure is different and your rehabilitation should be treated the same way. There is no such thing as an identical surgery. Most surgical procedures vary to some degree in complexity one way or another. However, other physical therapy clinics will treat your surgery as if it is the same as everyone else’s. Whether it’s the rotator cuff, an ACL reconstruction, hip replacement, or meniscus repair, our expert team is equipped to rehabilitate you as an individual.
Biomechanical Assessments
Every injury has a cause. Many people do not have a single event that can be traced to an injury. That is why we employ state-of-the-art visual equipment to analyze your biomechanics. To truly understand the course of many injuries, one must uncover the reason for the injury. We are able to analyze and break-down the mechanics of almost any activity, frame by frame, and any faults that may lead to injuries. Once discovered, the faults can be corrected, resulting in quicker recovery time.
Custom Cast Orthotics
Orthotics are not a panacea. One must be carefully evaluated from the hip to the toes before an accurate assessment for using, or not using, an orthotic is made. We take over an hour to analyze your lower extremity biomechanics, including video gait/running analysis, before considering custom casting the foot for orthotics. If you will benefit from an orthotic, we will then custom cast the feet, which is the most comprehensive way to accurately fit an orthotic. Be wary of foam step boxes or computer step plates without a proper lower extremity evaluation.
Preventative Spinal Care
Most back issues if not consistently addressed through comprehensive, prescribed therapeutic activity will become chronic. To assist with your recovery we will analyze what the cause of your back issues are and how to rehabilitate the condition. This will involve modifying your activities, analyzing muscle imbalances, comprehensive postural re-education, increasing your strength of the key back muscles, and teaching patients a comprehensive home program to maintain the back in working order. You no longer have to live a life with back pain.
Sprains, strains, -itis, and more
Whether you have an acute sprain of the ankle, strain of the cervical spine, bursitis, tendinitis, whiplash, trigger finger, you name it , we can help. If it involves an orthopedic ailment (e.g. preserving, restoring, and developing form and function in the extremities and spine), our physical therapists are qualified to assist you in recovery. The fact is the vast majority of sprains, strains, inflammations, and irritations do not require surgery, but will require some form of physical therapy, let us help.
