What is physical therapy? Physical Therapy is the use of hands on treatment, modalities, and exercise to improve your physical function and physical abilities.
What does that mean? Amy and Tom will look at how you move, how strong you are, how flexible you are? What movement hurts? What is weak and what is strong? What is stiff and what is loose? What are you doing well and what is not working successfully?
Then we will develop a plan to address the problems and help you move better, feel better, and perform better. The plan might include manual therapy, dry needling, modalities including electrical stimulation, ultrasound, heat, and ice.
You will have exercises to work on at home to change movement habits, strengthen what is weak, and stretch what is tight.
We have world-class equipment at the clinic to challenge you and build strength, balance, endurance, and range of motion.
We want to normalize tissue texture and tissue quality. We want to protect healing tissue. We want to decrease pain and inflammation. We want to help you recover from injury and surgery so you are better, faster, and stronger than you were before.
Call Carol at 314-821-8304 and she will help you get scheduled.
