Physical therapy is form healthcare that improves your quality of life through a movement-based approach that includes exercises, hands-on manual therapies and patient education. We believe that movement is medicine and we are here to help restore you to your previous level of function with decreased pain, increased strength and improved mobility.

We know that physical therapy can be intimidating and being concerned about increased pain is perfectly normal. Our approach to physical therapy is diverse and complete and utilizes manual therapies, modalities and exercises as appropriate. It is possible that there will be some discomfort along the way — we may be introducing you to some muscles you didn’t know you had!— but our goal will always be to relieve you of your pain and get you returned to your best self.

If you have a prescription or referral from your primary care physician or surgeon, please bring this in.

If you have filled out all your information online and provided your proof of insurance and proof of COVID vaccination, there is no need to bring anything other than your photo ID and a method of payment for your co-pay .

If, for any reason, you were not able to complete these items prior to arrival, you can fill them out when you arrive. Please bring your proof of insurance and COVID-19 vaccination.

Wear comfortable clothing that you can perform exercises in. If you are being treated for a condition of your hip, knee, or ankle, please wear (or bring) shorts or pants that be comfortably rolled up to at least your knee. If you are being treated for a condition of your neck, shoulder or elbow, please wear (or bring) a short-sleeved shirt or tank top. Women may be more comfortable in a razor-backed sports bra.

This is highly variable from person to person and depends on many, many factors including (but not limited to): nature and severity of the condition, age and overall health, and compliance with prescribed home program. Your Physical Therapist will help you set realistic goals and expectations after your evaluation but remember, it is a complex process. The biggest factor you can control is your own commitment; do your exercises, practice your self-care and have some patience.

This will be determined by your physical therapist after your initial evaluation. It is common for patients to be seen 1-2 times per week for 6-8 weeks, but it may be more or less depending on what is appropriate for your condition.

Expect to be in the clinic for 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remember to arrive on time so you don’t lose any of your session!

This will vary from person to person, depending on your needs. A general rule of thumb is strengthening exercises should be performed 3 times per week, and mobility exercises (such as stretching) should be performed 6 times per week. Your Physical Therapist or Physical Therapist Assistant will provide you with more specific guidelines during your sessions.
