Our department offers quality patient care programs that include traditional physical therapy methods as well as the most current effective treatments and approaches.

What can I expect during my initial physical therapy visit?

People often ask this question. Your initial visit will begin with a thorough medical history followed by a comprehensive examination and assessment of your physical condition. From the assessment findings, we will design a customized treatment plan to meet your specific needs.

Treatment may include:

  • Therapeutic exercises
  • Modalities to relieve pain and encourage healing (electrical stimulation and/or ultrasound, among others)
  • Hands on manual therapy to relieve pain and encourage joint and muscle flexibility
  • Movement and/or posture retraining
  • Therapeutic activities to assist in your safe return to customary physical activities.

We also emphasize the use of an individualized home program, so that you can take the initiative for your recovery between appointments.

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to scheduled first appointment time so we have ample time to finish all administrative paperwork and spend your appointment time working on your physical needs.
