How We Heal
Body
Following a referral from a medical practitioner, a physical therapist will conduct a thorough evaluation. This comprehensive session will include an assessment of posture, range of motion and muscle, as well as nerve and joint function. A customized treatment plan will be designed specifically to help reduce pain, improve function and mobility, as well as restore quality of life. The plan will also include educational components on how to manage and decrease pain.
