    Common Conditions Physical Therapy May Help With

    Physical therapists offer additional therapeutic support for a broad range of medical conditions. While we may not directly treat medical conditions beyond musculoskeletal issues, we focus on enhancing recovery and educating individuals on optimizing their movement patterns.

    Here are some conditions that may benefit from physical therapy:

    • Cardiopulmonary conditions, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, cystic fibrosis
    • Respiratory issues, such as chronic bronchitis as well as other respiratory disorders, can be treated with pulmonary rehabilitation plans by strengthening the lungs with diaphragmatic breathing tasks.

    The Benefits of Early Physical Therapy Intervention

    Early physical therapy intervention means starting therapy promptly after an injury, surgery, or the first signs of discomfort or mobility issues.

    Why it Matters

    • Pain Management: Early physical therapy can help manage and even reduce pain. By targeting the root causes of discomfort from the start, you can minimize your need for pain medications and enhance your overall quality of life.
    • Faster Recovery: Physical therapists specialize in evaluating your condition and creating personalized treatment plans that cater to your unique needs. This customized approach can speed up the healing process.
    • Preventing Additional Harm: Without proper attention, minor problems may worsen and lead to more serious health concerns. Early intervention, on the other hand, can stop the progression of certain conditions and prevent them from escalating. By addressing issues promptly, you can minimize the risk of severe complications and promote better overall health.
    • Improved Outcomes: Research indicates that patients who start physical therapy early generally experience better results. Whether you're recovering from a sports injury, surgery, or managing a chronic condition, timely intervention can help avoid complications and prevent long-term problems.
    • Cost Savings: Seeking physical therapy early can often save you money over time. By tackling issues promptly, you may prevent the need for more costly and invasive treatments, surgeries, or extended rehabilitation.

    What Are Some Treatment Techniques That We Use?

      Graston Technique

      Graston Technique is an instrument – assisted soft tissue mobilization technique that allows us to detect and treat areas of scar tissue or adhesions in the muscles, tendons and ligaments that can reduce range of motion and cause pain.

      Manual Therapy

      A highly trained therapist will facilitate hands-on techniques to diagnose and treat soft tissue and joints to reduce pain and increase range of motion and function, here are just a few to mention:

      • Soft tissue mobilization
      • Myofascial Release
      • Active Release Technique
      • Functional mobilization
      • Massage
      • Graston Technique
      • Joint Mobilization

      Therapeutic Exercise

      An exercise program created just for you and tailored to your diagnosis, that helps restore and build physical strength, endurance, flexibility, balance and stability.

      Cupping

      Softens tight muscles and tone attachments, loosen adhesions and lifts connective tissue, bringing hydration and blood flow to body tissues.

      Dry Needling (Physician Prescription Required)

      With a physician's approval, a very thin needle is pushed through the skin to stimulate a trigger point, which may release the tight muscle bands and lead to decreased pain and improved function.

      Therapeutic Activity

      Movement activities for a specific body part or could involve the entire body, we involve the use of functional activities such as bending, lifting, reaching, catching and overhead activities to improve functional performance.

      Electrical Stimulation

      A physical therapy treatment modality we may use to improve muscle function, decrease pain, or promote healing.

      Balance Training

      There are many areas to balance for preventing injuries and falls. Some of these areas include foot and ankle movement, foot sensation, head and eye coordination, center of gravity retraining and your depth perception. We address each of these areas with you to improve your overall balance.

        Blood Flow Restriction (BFR)

        Using a cuff placed around your arm or leg and closely monitored with specialized equipment, this will restrict blood flow to the affected muscles. While blood flow is restricted, you’re able to get the same strength training benefits from lighter weights that you would typically see from heavier weights without the added pressure on your joints reducing joint irritation. BFR also increases the speed of your overall muscle recovery. This is a technique that might be recommended to help patients who have weight-bearing restrictions placed on their recovery and/or painful joints with weak muscles.

        Kinesio Taping

        Alleviates discomfort and facilitates circulation by microscopically lifting the skin.
