Physical Rehabilitation
Physical rehabilitation provides help to restore function, improve mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit permanent physical disabilities of patients. We work closely with patients to restore, maintain, and promote their overall fitness and health. The chiropractor will test and measure your strength, range of motion, balance and coordination, posture, muscle performance and motor function and then develop treatment plans based on the evaluation and diagnosis. Patients may include auto accident victims and individuals with disabling conditions.
After the reduction of your pain or ache, the doctor may design an individual program that will include a series of rehabilitative exercises performed both in the office and at home to stretch and strengthen the affected muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Your doctor’s goal is to provide you with long lasting pain relief and to educate you on how to prevent recurrence of the problem. This is achieved through the use of low or high tech equipment such as Grey Cook Bands, SFMA specific movements and core stability. Low tech equipment may be such simple devices as walls, doorways, tubes and gym balls.
