PT is more important now than ever

In light of the ongoing COVID- 19 pandemic, we want to ensure that our patients continue to make progress toward their goals and recovery. Staying on track with your plan of care is more important now than ever, which is why we are staying committed to your wellness and safety during this uncertain time.

Increased sedentary activity and increased levels of stress resulting from the current pandemic and social distancing have the potential to intensify symptoms for those suffering from chronic pain. This in addition to the fact that many elective surgeries are being postponed, there is an even greater need for therapists to continue to help relieve pain and manage symptoms as patients wait for their doctor appointments and/or surgeries to be rescheduled. 

As you train or exercise, you build strength, endurance, and power, but when you stop exercising, those effects can deteriorate quite rapidly. While home exercise programs are helpful, they don’t have the same impact as in-clinic treatment. By continuing your visits to the clinic, our therapists are able to provide more comprehensive assessments and updates as you progress. This is especially important for our patients who are post-operative or at risk for falls.

In light of such uncertain times, we want to assure you that our clinic is a safe environment for you to come to rehabilitate your injuries. We ultimately want to get you back to being you. Whatever your treatment goals may be, we believe the single-biggest factor in a successful recovery from injury is completing the recommended course of care.

Thank you for partnering with us so that we can continue to provide you with the highest level of care, enabling  us to help you return to the activities you love.
