Our highly qualified and experienced physical therapists and physical therapy assitants (PTAs) specialize in the movement of the human body. They work to reduce pain and restore independence, strength, range of motion and activity to people of all ages. Physical therapy may be used alone or in combination with occupational therapy or other therapies as part of a comprehensive rehabilitation plan. Our physical therapy staff work with your care team, including primary care physician, occupational health physicians, surgeons and other specialty care providers, to ensure you regain your maximum physical potential.
Physical therapy may be used to treat injuries and illnesses such as:
- sprains, strains, fractures and sports-related injuries
- back pain
- orthopedic post-operative repair
- neurological impairments from stroke, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s Disease, etc.
- arthritis
- fibromyalgia
- amputations
- industrial or work-related injuries
- prosthetic and orthotic training
Our specialties include:
- sports medicine
- myofascial techniques (manual manipulation of soft tissue) and craniosacral techniques (massage of the bones in the skull, face, spine and pelvis) to treat pain and dysfunction
- integrated manual therapy, which employs gentle hands-on manual therapy to treat pain, dysfunction and disability
- vestibular rehabilitation therapy (VRT), an exercise-based program designed to promote central nervous system compensation for inner ear deficits
- splinting
- women's health and pelvic floor disfunction, to treat urinary incontinence and pelvic pain disorders
Ask your physician for a referral to DKH Physical Therapy services. Services may be provided on an inpatient, outpatient or in-home basis, depending on your particular needs and treatment plan.
During the initial evaluation, your therapist will ask questions relating to the onset and nature of your illness, injury or condition, previous and current functional level, the nature of any past and current medical history, and your goals for treatment. These questions, and others, will enable us to plan and coordinate your treatment for optimal results.
