PTs improve the way you move!

The role of a physical therapist is to restore and improve movement and function due to impairments caused by dysfunction within the musculoskeletal, neurological, and/or cardiovascular systems. Treatment consists of education, exercise, motor control training, and manual therapy as needed per patient.

Disciplines within PT : orthopedics, sports, neurology, cardiopulmonary, pediatrics, geriatrics, pelvic floor, oncology, wound care

The patient will be contacted by a licensed physical therapist in the patient’s respective residing state. The location (virtual or in-person) of the evaluation or treatment session is up to the discretion of the physical therapist and the patient. During the evaluation, the physical therapist will ask important questions regarding symptoms and cause of injury, they will then perform a series of movement assessments and determine a proper plan of care. This plan will include a customized home exercise program. Based on the patient’s presentation and access to healthcare, the therapist will help the patient navigate the appropriate path to recovery providing them with the necessary tools for a successful recovery.
