Physical Therapy

Treatment Philosophy

Our philosophy is simple, to make each patient feel better each visit. We strive to individualize each treatment session, modifying each exercise as needed, to enable the patient to achieve the highest functional outcome possible while minimizing/eliminating pain. Our therapists have worked with our physicians extensively to create rehab-specific protocols for each surgical procedure performed. This way you and your physician know with confidence that we’re treating within each physician’s preferences to maximize your successful recovery.
