Orthopedic Therapy
We provide Orthopedic services
Orthopedic therapy is a branch of physical therapy that focuses on the evaluation, prevention, and treatment of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions. Orthopedic therapists work with patients to help them recover from injuries, surgeries, and chronic conditions that affect the musculoskeletal system, such as arthritis, back pain, and fractures.
Orthopedic therapy typically involves a comprehensive assessment of the patient’s physical function and mobility, followed by the development of an individualized treatment plan that may include therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, modalities such as ultrasound or electrical stimulation, and education on injury prevention and self-care.
The goal of orthopedic therapy is to help patients regain strength, flexibility, and range of motion, reduce pain and inflammation, and improve overall physical function and quality of life. Orthopedic therapists work closely with other healthcare professionals, such as orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine physicians, to provide the best possible care for their patients.
Orthopedic therapy can be used to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions and injuries, including:
1. Joint pain and stiffness: Orthopedic therapy can help alleviate pain and improve mobility in joints affected by arthritis, bursitis, and other inflammatory conditions.
2. Fractures and dislocations: Orthopedic therapy can help patients recover from fractures, dislocations, and other traumatic injuries by restoring strength and mobility to the affected area.
3. Back pain: Orthopedic therapy can be effective in treating lower back pain caused by conditions such as herniated discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis.
4. Post-surgical rehabilitation: Orthopedic therapy can help patients recover from orthopedic surgeries such as joint replacement, ACL repair, and rotator cuff repair.
5. Sports injuries: Orthopedic therapy can help athletes recover from sports-related injuries such as sprains, strains, and tendonitis, and prevent future injuries by improving strength and flexibility.
6. Osteoporosis: Orthopedic therapy can help improve bone density and reduce the risk of fractures in patients with osteoporosis.
