Physical Therapy

Physical therapists provide services that help restore function, improve mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit permanent physical disabilities of patients suffering from injuries or disease. They restore, maintain, and promote overall fitness and health.

Dysfunctions treated with physical therapy include:

Upper, Mid and Lower Back Pain
Extremity Pain
Pulmonary Disorders (obstructive and restrictive)
Cardiac Disorders
Orthopaedic Disorders (fractures, sprains and strains)
Neurological Disorders (stroke, traumatic brain injury, and upper and lower motor neuron disorders)

Physical therapists examine patients' medical histories and then objectively assess patients' strength, range of motion, balance and coordination, posture, muscle performance, respiration, and motor function. Through development of an individualized, comprehensive plan of care, physical therapists resolve impairments, enabling patients to perform their prior activities of daily living.
