Initial Evaluation

The physical therapist will take a medical history. They will ask questions about your health, illnesses, medications, and current activity level. The therapist will do a physical examination, checking the mobility in your joints, posture, muscle strength and will look at how you function. Depending on your mobility, the therapist will observe you walking, squatting, jumping or running.  The physical therapist will discuss the initial evaluation findings with you at the end of the session. If therapy is recommended, they will discuss your strengths, areas for improvement, a plan of care, and suggestions for physical therapy treatment or performance. They will also talk about the plan for discharge when therapy ends.

Dry Needling

Dry Needling is an evidenced-based intervention that is used to treat myofascial pain.  TDN involves inserting a thin filament needle into a tight, spasmed or sore muscle.  Dry needling is NOT acupuncture. TDN is a safe and effective method to relieve acute and chronic pain associated with tight, or spasming muscle, tendon, soft-tissue pain and myofascial trigger points.

Cupping

Cupping involves using heat or suction to create a vacuum effect in a glass cup, which is placed on the skin. The vacuum lifts the underlying tissue to break up bridges that are limiting mobility. Cupping also provides hydration to the tissue to prevent further cross-linkage of tissues from forming.

Other

Functional Movement Analysis (FMA): Assesses movement quality and forms a basis for treatment protocols and exercise program design.

Graston Technique: Instrument-assisted soft-tissue mobilization that enables clinicians to treat scar tissue and fascial restrictions.

Active Release Technique (ART): Soft-tissue system/movement-based massage technique for treating muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.

Postural Restoration:  PRC is a biomechanically-based therapy process that identifies and corrects muscular imbalances responsible for chronic pain, tightness, and injury. Designed to correct body alignment, PRC can help improve athletic performance and everyday activity.
