Physical Therapy Can Help
Our team is highly trained in orthopedic manual physical therapy which allows them to assess the mobility, strength, range of motion, and balance in people of all ages. We can help you increase your physical independence, return to work or school, and help you return to sports and other activities that you used to love to do.
What does this process look like?
At your first appointment, our physical therapist will complete a full evaluation and determine what changes have occurred with your balance, movement, range of motion, and strength. During this time, we will also review any potential cause of your discomfort such as a car accident, sports injury, or fall. This helps our therapist to understand where the disfunction originated.
After your initial evaluation, we will focus on the specific area that you want to work on and determine your strengths and weaknesses in this area.
Lastly, we will go over the results of the evaluation with you in order to determine if physical therapy is recommended. At this time, our physical therapist will also create goals with you regarding the areas of difficulty that you want to work on. Goals look different for everyone but may include returning to your favorite sport without chronic pain, the ability to walk without fear of falling, or simply improving your overall strength.
Personalized Therapy
We provide 1-on-1 physical therapy in Chico, California to target the goals that were developed during the evaluation. We provide you with caregiver training and a home program to help you continue to improve your mobility, balance, range of motion, and strength at home.
