Orthopedic Physical Therapy, Inc. strives to keep an open and professional relationship with all patients. Patient care is based on determining the source of the pain. The evaluating physical therapist uses their knowledge and skills to reach functional goals. In most cases, the evaluation and treatment sessions will be with the same therapist. This fosters a continuum of care and encourages consistency. If an issue arises that needs a specialized evaluation, the appropriate therapist will be consulted.

All of the therapists at Orthopedic Physical Therapy specialize in manual therapy. This is an approach which includes advanced skills and emphasizes direct, hands-on treatment. Our goal is to return the patient to the best functional and pain-free level possible.

Goals of physical therapy include:

  • Relieve Pain
  • Increase Mobility
  • Home Exercise Program
  • Improve Function
  • Correct Body Mechanics
  • Improve Posture
Following your treatments, you may experience increased muscle spasms, pain, or fatigue.  Depending on your diagnosis and history, your progress may be slower than expected, but early discharge from therapy may prolong your symptoms.  We will do our best to help you obtain the desired goals, but your cooperation and motivation are essential.
