THERAPEUTIC EXERCISE

(including a personalized Home Exercise Program)

Therapeutic Exercise is also an integral part of your rehab experience. This treatment is designed to supplement and build on the manual therapy treatment that you receive. While manual therapy helps to find and fix the problem areas, therapeutic exercises helps retrain, strengthen and progress normal movement patterns. Each client is taught specific exercises related to their problem areas and updated every visit to progress toward normal movement. We provide an online platform for each client to log in and access their customized exercise program. It includes videos of each exercise along with the ability to mark as complete each day to keep you on track and accountable in achieving your goals.

KINESIO TAPING

Kinesio tape is a therapeutic taping method using a uniquely designed elastic tape to effect tissues and physiologic systems. It is applied by trained physical therapists and used to aid in tissue response to manual therapy and therapeutic exercises. The direction, location, and amount of stretch placed on the tape effects the sensory receptors on the skin to effect the tissues underneath the skin. Common uses of kinesio tape include posture and positioning, muscle activation, muscle inhibition, fascia restrictions, inflammation. This treatment modality can be very effective in the rehab process, but only as a means to an end, not something you depend on as a solution to the problem.

MOVEMENT AND INJURY RISK ASSESSMENT

If you suffer from a repetitive injury or looking to improve your fitness goals, or simply concerned about getting injured before you start a new workout program, this may be a great options for you. We spend 1 hour with each client doing a thorough movement screen and assessment of each body part to determine potential risks for injury. The client is educated on these potential risk and given exercises to make improvements in these areas. We will also discuss if manual therapy would be beneficial in treating the identified problem areas.

MANUAL THERAPY

Manual therapy is the bedrock of treatment you will receive at Branch Physical Therapy. We value the importance of hands-on assessment and treatment to find and fix movement dysfunctions. This is what sets us apart from traditional physical therapy clinics. Our Physical Therapists are highly skilled in manual therapy to effect joint restrictions, soft tissue restrictions, muscle activation and re-education in order to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and restore function.
