Do you need
physical therapy? Are you getting ready for summer activities such
as hiking, biking or golf? Have you had surgery and need to regain
function and mobility? Are you looking for relief from chronic
pain? Have you been injured and want to prevent permanent
disability? Are you interested in your overall fitness and health?
Then physical therapy could be the answer. The Sports and Rehab
Clinic provides quality, individual care for every client. We
treat all types of people with musculoskeletal problems, ranging
from the professional kayaker and tri-athlete to the senior with
Parkinson’s disease and balance issues, to the weekend golfer and
biker. We also work with pre and postnatal issues. We have assisted
those who are trying to prepare for upcoming sporting events that
want to improve their performance.
Treatment begins by formulating a
plan that is individualized for each person and is developed based
on a thorough evaluation, according to their needs and goals. The
evaluation can be extensive starting with a comprehensive objective
examination, which may include…muscle testing, range of motion,
posture evaluation, gait evaluation and functional movement
patterns, as well as sport specific evaluations. Biomechanical
evaluations can address leg length discrepancies, abnormal gait
patterns and foot abnormalities, and as well as postural deficits.
Treatment plans may include a home exercise program,
balance and gait training, pool therapy, and strengthening using gym
equipment as well as home products. The plan may require manual
therapy techniques, which can be used for addressing strength
deficits and muscle tightness. Manual therapy is hands on treatment
techniques, such as positional release, muscle energy techniques,
contract-relax and acupressure. Treatment for
biomechanical problems may include Orthotics, addressing postural
deficits, strengthening and stretching.
