The Physical Therapy Treatments we use at MOVE
Manual Therapy
Manual therapy involves hands-on techniques such as soft tissue mobilization, joint manipulation, and myofascial release. This type of therapy is used to alleviate pain, reduce muscle tension, and improve joint mobility. By targeting specific areas of discomfort, our therapists can help clients achieve pain relief and improve functional movement.
Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic exercise is a cornerstone of physical therapy at MOVE. These exercises are carefully selected based on each patient’s condition and rehabilitation goals. For sports injuries, exercises are designed to mimic movements specific to the athlete’s sport, allowing for a safe transition back to activity. In the case of joint pain or post-surgical recovery, exercises focus on rebuilding strength and improving flexibility to support optimal function.
Ultrasound Therapy
Ultrasound therapy is used to promote tissue healing and reduce inflammation. This non-invasive technique involves the use of sound waves to stimulate blood flow and accelerate the healing of soft tissues. It is commonly used for conditions like tendonitis, sprains, and bursitis.
At MOVE, our physical therapists use scraping to complement traditional manual therapies and tailor each session to the client’s unique needs. This versatility allows us to create comprehensive treatment plans that address both the root cause of pain and immediate discomfort. Many clients report feeling looser, with improved mobility and less pain after just a few sessions.
Electrical Stimulation
Electrical stimulation is another popular treatment used at MOVE, particularly for pain management and muscle re-education. By applying controlled electrical currents to targeted muscles, this therapy helps improve muscle contraction, reduce pain, and increase circulation in the affected areas. It’s often used for patients recovering from surgery or dealing with chronic pain conditions.
Posture and Movement Assessment
Proper posture and movement mechanics are key to preventing injury and promoting recovery. At MOVE, we assess each client’s posture, gait, and movement patterns to identify imbalances or weaknesses that may be contributing to pain or dysfunction. Based on this assessment, we develop personalized exercises and training programs designed to correct these issues and promote long-term health.
