Our treatments are performed on a one-on-one basis and combine skilled hands-on physical therapy with extraordinary patient education and specific strengthening/stretching programs to condition patients, promote healing and avoid re-injury. People have different types of bodies, different patterns of movement, different alignments, different habits and so respond differently to therapies. Our physical therapists, along with Dr. Slattery, monitor each patient and works to minimize pain by improving habits, alignments, and other factors.

Therapies can be both active and passive. Passive Therapies include moist heat, cryotherapy, ultrasound, cold laser, and interferential/TENS, which delivers painless low-voltage electrical current that stimulates nerves in the affected area and sends signals to the brain that “scramble” normal pain perception. Active Therapies include manual hands-on therapy, stretching and strengthening exercises that may be done with weights and bands, core and work hardening, balance training, and cardiovascular conditioning.
