Think’s personalized approach to Physical Therapy.
Your journey starts with a thorough evaluation. Your physical therapist will talk with you about your symptoms, medical history, and personal goals. They’ll perform tests to assess your strength, range of motion, flexibility, balance, posture, and how you move.
Based on the assessment, our physical therapists will create a personalized treatment plan for you. Physical therapy isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. Your plan will likely involve a combination of techniques, such as:
- Therapeutic Exercise: Customized exercises designed to rebuild strength, improve flexibility, increase endurance, and restore function safely.
- Manual Therapy: Skilled, hands-on techniques like joint mobilization, soft tissue massage, or targeted stretching performed by the therapist to reduce pain, decrease stiffness, and improve movement in joints and muscles.
- Patient Education: Important information about your condition, how to manage it, techniques for preventing re-injury, proper body mechanics for daily tasks, and tailored home exercise programs.
Specialized Modalities: Using appropriate tools and technology to support healing, reduce pain, and decrease inflammation. It may include heat/cold therapy, electrical stimulation, ultrasound, traction, or advanced equipment.
