We love what we do
Physical therapy is provided for individuals of all ages who have or may develop impairments, activity limitations, and participation restrictions related to conditions of the musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiovascular, pulmonary, and/or integumentary systems.
On your initial visit a therapist will evaluate your injury or dysfunction and develop an individualized treatment plan to:
- Relieve pain
- Promote the healing process
- Improve or maintain a body function
- Prevent secondary complications of an injury or disability
- Restore function, strength, mobility, and/or coordination.
- Rehabilitate each patient to the optimal degree possible.
Many conditions respond favorably to physical therapy. Among the most common conditions treated are:
- Degenerative conditions – those affecting joints and locomotion – such as osteoarthritis
- Fractures, dislocations
- Muscle and soft tissue injuries
- Inflammatory conditions such as bursitis, tendonitis, etc.
- Chronic diseases/dysfunction such as multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, chronic low back pain.
- Neurological injuries/conditions
- Wounds
- Circulatory conditions/disorders
Other conditions treated with physical therapy include spinal cord injuries (paraplegia, quadriplegia), burns, ulcers, amputations, various forms of neuritis, and skin diseases such as psoriasis and scleroderma. The physical therapists work closely with physicians, nursing services, and other practitioners in providing the best possible program for each patient.
- Treatment programs customized to help improve abilities to facilitate activities of daily living
- Home and job environment evaluations and recommendations for adaptation needs
- Performance skills assessment and treatments
- Adaptive equipment recommendation and training to replace loss of function
- Family member and attendant instruction in safe and effective means of caring for individuals
Occupational therapists are skilled professionals whose education includes the study of human growth and development. Emphasis is placed on the social, emotional, and physiological effects of illness and injury in this regards.
The occupational therapist works closely with our physical therapists, referring physicians, nursing services, rehab counselors and other practitioners to provide the best possible program for the patient.
Treatment may include exercise, functional activities and splinting. Adaptive equipment to increase the patient’s ability to perform activities of daily living and instruction in their use may also be provided.
Hand Therapy
- Fractures of the wrist and hand
- Rheumatoid and osteoarthritis
- Dupuytren’s Disease
- Congenital deformities
- Tendon injuries
- Soft injury of hand, wrist and forearm
- Overuse (cumulative trauma) disorder
- Reconstruction secondary to spinal cord injuries and CVA’s
The main objectives of Hand Therapy are:
- Evaluation of strength, endurance, and coordination motion
- Increase functional use of the upper extremity within the limits of the patient’s disability
- Decrease pain
- Fabrication of dynamic and static splints
Evaluation
Our staff is highly skilled in the evaluation and treatment of sports-related injuries. Our focus is to get you back to your sporting activity as quickly and safely as possible, while minimizing the risk of reinjury.
Performance Enhancement
Our sports physical therapists assist athletically-active individuals to improve their performance in a variety of ways. The foundation of performance enhancement is provided by a thorough evaluation of the neuromusculoskeletal and the cardiovascular-pulmonary systems. The results of this evaluation are compiled to outline strengths and weaknesses in an individual’s physical profile. This profile can then be matched to the individual’s specific athletic activity. Areas of deficiency in flexibility, muscular strength and endurance, and in the aerobic/anaerobic systems can be outlined in a specific training regime. Follow-up evaluations can determine further training program changes.
