Orthopedic Rehabilitation
Care for head-to-toe pain and conditions
If you’re dealing with musculoskeletal issues – discomfort in your muscles, joints, ligaments, tendons or cartilage – your best option for treatment may be orthopedic rehabilitation. Our physical therapists will not only diagnose the source or sources of the pain, but devise an individualized plan of care focused on healing and exercise that can help you return quickly to the lifestyle and quality of life you desire.

It is a holistic approach to treating musculoskeletal pain, which is a leading cause of disabilities in the United States.

Why go to a physical therapist for orthopedic rehabilitation?
There are other alternatives for treatment of these issues. A physical therapist, however, is best suited because:
- Physical therapists are movement experts and trained in the entire musculoskeletal system. They aren’t limited to one specialized area, such as the back or neck, and can treat the problematic region as well as diagnose the root cause of your discomfort and treat that, too.
- Because of its holistic and individual-based approaches, physical therapy often gets patients back to activities more quickly than other treatments. A quicker return to health is beneficial financially and mentally as well as physically.
- With the assistance of physical therapists, orthopedic rehabilitation can improve core strength, balance, mobility, circulation, range of motion and endurance.
- Physical therapists devise a specialized care plan based on your symptoms and goals. They are not simply treating the physical issue, but are also working toward getting your body in proper shape to return to the activities that provide you joy.
- One-on-one, hour sessions – typically longer than alternative orthopedic rehabilitation appointments – provide ample time for physical therapists to listen, evaluate, treat and instruct. You’ll go home with a specific plan for improvement after each session, which often expedites recovery.
- In many cases, you won’t need a referral, and physical therapy can begin immediately.
