General Orthopedic Physical
Therapy
Orthopedic
Physical Therapy is concerned with the various types
of disorders and injuries affecting our muscles, bones,
and joints. These conditions can occur in all ages
throughout the population, and to people of all activity
levels, from athletes to couch-potatoes.
At HealthWorks, orthopedic physical therapy is our
main focus. Our clinic was designed, built and equipped
especially for orthopedic care.
But more importantly, orthopedic care is what we
have trained for. With 2 Board Certified Specialists
in Orthopedic Physical Therapy on our staff, and a
combined 40 years of orthopedic experience as a whole,
we have the training and experience to quickly and
accurately determine the root cause of your problems
and design an individualized, research-based program
to get you moving again. Finally, when you leave us,
you leave with an extensive home program to help you
remain strong and prevent re-injury.
