A specific regimen of exercises and stretches are developed for each individual patient to help
re-train injured or improperly functioning muscles and joints. The function of muscles, joint
ligaments, and receptors is improved through various exercises and stretches. Following the prescribed
regimen helps to speed healing, increase stability, and prevent future exacerbations of a problem.
- The patient benefits from the increased muscle strength and flexibility and optimal function is gained.
- Exercise programs and pre- and post-partum conditioning are also offered.
- Ergonomic evaluation and education may also be reviewed with a patient if applicable to their work setting
and injury.
- Athletic evaluation is offered to determine if peak performance is currently being reached.
If it is not, form corrections are made.
- Kinesiotape is a latex-free elastic tape placed on the muscles to treat muscle disorders and swelling.
The tape is different than regular athletic tape in that it re-educates the nerve-muscle system, promotes
lymphatic flow and healing, decreases pain, enhances athletic performance and prevents injury.
