Orthopedics and Spine 

 

Our orthopedic physical therapists work closely with providers from our Orthopedic Surgery Service to care for patients with disorders of the bones, joints, and muscles. We offer physical therapy to patients with a number of orthopedic conditions, including:

  • Acute injuries, those involving a specific incident or traumatic event
  • Chronic conditions, those involving persistent pain or difficulty for longer than three months
  • Post-operative care for spine surgery and total joint surgery
  • View all conditions we treat

Evaluation and Treatment Plan

Your first appointment with us will include a thorough evaluation and interview. We’ll use the information we gather to help understand your condition and develop a personalized care plan. We’ll focus on the following goals for your rehabilitation plan:

  • Decrease your pain
  • Improve your daily work and recreational activities
  • Improve your strength and range of motion
  • Restore joint mobility and range of motion

After your first appointment, follow-up visits with your physical therapist will include the following activities to help you achieve your personal goals:

  • Education
  • Exercises specific to your condition, based on your initial exam
  • Manual therapies, including stretching, joint mobilization, and joint manipulation
  • Various pain-relieving treatments, such as ice, heat, ultrasound, and electrical stimulation)

Physical medicine and rehabilitation services for spine disorders

We provide a wide range of treatments for spine conditions and disorders. 

  • Nonsurgical spinal treatments, such as medication management; trigger-point, Botox, and prolotherapy injections, which can relieve pain and spasms and strengthen ligaments and tendons in the back
  • Image-guided spine injections
  • Minimally invasive procedures to treat spinal discs
  • Neurophysiology and electrodiagnosis, which involves knowledge of the nervous system and gathering information about the spine’s electrical activity
  • Osteopathic spine manipulation, which involves moving joints and tissues to relieve tension and pain
  • Participation in the Pain Management Service, a team-based approach to pain relief that brings together providers from many specialties
