ORTHOPEDIC THERAPY:

Orthopedic therapy involves care for joints and soft tissues, such as muscles, ligaments, and tendons. We provide therapy after surgeries like rotator cuff repairs or joint replacements. We also provide care for joint and muscular pain after injury or simply due to wear-and-tear. Conditions that could benefit from orthopedic therapy include:

• neck pain
• whiplash
• shoulder pain
• carpal tunnel syndrome
• lower back pain
• knee pain
• ankle pain
• plantar fasciitis
•  

Orthopedic therapy focuses on increasing strength in weak muscles and/or improving flexibility/ range-of-motion in tight muscles and joints. Therapy typically involves performing an individualized exercise program designed to address your physical limitations. We also use a variety of adjuncts to therapy aimed at reducing pain. Such treatments include:

• Applying specialized tape to align structures in the body
• Soft tissue mobilization using patented tools to reduce scar tissue/ fibrosis
• Custom fitting for orthotics to reduce foot pain
• Electrical stimulation
• Deep heating modalities.
