What types of physical therapy treatments do you perform?
Oct 25th 2018Physical Therapy Treatment is based on the initial evaluation findings. We perform various types of physical therapy treatments, and will customize a physical therapy program specific for your particular injury. We are big proponents of manual therapy which is defined as a clinical approach utilizing skilled, specific hands-on techniques used by the physical therapist to diagnose and treat musculoskeletal pain and symptoms.
The manual therapy techniques and modalities we use include trigger point therapy, muscle energy, soft tissue massage, joint mobilization, proprioception, electrical stimulation and therapeutic exercises.
