Our holistic physical therapy goes beyond addressing physical symptoms. It integrates traditional and modern practices, considering the interconnectedness of the mind, body, and spirit. Traditional physical therapy is based upon the treatment of a closed muscle group with the specific goal of repairing an injury. It is a suitable form of treatment for some patients, but does not address the whole system which leaves the body at a greater risk for reinjury. A holistic approach to physical therapy is vastly different from the more traditional therapy as it treats the body and mind as a whole instead of only improving the function of one specific part. Because we look at the person as a whole our treatments require less frequent appointments. While a traditional physical therapy office would see you two to three times a week, we see our patients once a week to once every two to three weeks. Despite the lower frequency we often achieve superior results.
