What kind of treatment will I get?

Out wellness program consists of an in depth evaluation of your current level of fitness and function, examination of your personal goals and development of a progressive fitness program.  We offer any level of supervision you may need – from development of an independent program or one on one supervision in our clinic for those who need a little more assistance.

If any serious problems are noted, we will refer you to a physician if needed or initiate physical therapy treatments if warranted.  Physical therapists may use a variety of treatments to optimize your performance, treat and prevent injuries.  Some treatments include manual therapy, orthopedic therapy, therapeutic exercise and education.  We may also use a number of other treatment modalities depending on your condition.  When treating fitness and wellness related clientele, our focus includes cardiovascular, endurance, and resistance training.  This functional retraining may include neuromuscular re-education, speed, agility, explosiveness, balance and co-ordination.
