On-Site Physical Therapy
You have the option of choosing our Physical Therapy Centers to receive your services, conveniently located at our St. Mary’s, Memorial Regional, and Short Pump offices. Your physician may recommend physical therapy as part of your treatment plan.
Our physical therapy program is part of our multidisciplinary approach to treating patients with musculoskeletal problems and for those recovering from injury or surgery.
You can be assured that our highly skilled physical therapists will work closely with your Tuckahoe physician to customize a therapy program that focuses on your individual goals. They will communicate on a regular basis in order to evaluate your progress and, as needed, make adjustments to your treatment plan to ensure optimal outcomes.
Skilled Physical Therapists
Your physical therapy will be provided by one of our licensed physical therapists or physical therapy assistant. They have each received advanced training in Physical Therapy beyond their undergraduate studies. Our clinicians bring a vast array of knowledge to assist you in meeting your goals.
Your physical therapist will examine you and recommend a treatment plan. This plan will empower you to improve your flexibility, strength, endurance, coordination, and/or balance….so you can return to your normal activities as well as prevent future injuries and pain.
