Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is a healthcare discipline focused on the rehabilitation and prevention of musculoskeletal and neurological injuries and conditions across the age continuum. We also provide sports rehabilitation for athletes who are recovering from injury to help them return to their sport.
What is Physical Therapy?
Physical therapy treats diseases or injuries that impair a person's mobility and capacity to carry out essential everyday tasks. PTs evaluate a patient's history and physical examination to make a diagnosis and create a therapy plan. When appropriate, they also take into account the findings from laboratory and imaging tests such X-rays, CT scans, and MRIs.
What are our Therapist's Responsibilities?
Our therapists use a combination of active and passive treatment interventions to help their patients recover from surgery or trauma, alleviate chronic pain, increase mobility and generally improve the quality of their day-to-day lives.

What are the Benefits?
physical therapists can identify areas of imbalance or weakness that may lead to future issues and then develop a preventative program to correct those deficiencies. Annual physical therapy consultations and musculoskeletal wellness screenings are fast becoming recognized as a crucial component of preventative health care.
