Physical Therapy 

Physical Therapy provides services to individuals by highly trained Physical Therapists to develop, maintain and restore maximum movement and functional ability. 

Physical Therapists are licensed medical professionals with the skills required to diagnose physical abnormalities and restore physical function and mobility. In doing so, they address pain, promote physical activity, and help restore independent function.

A physical therapist cares for patients in all phases of healing, from initial diagnosis through the restorative and preventive stages of recovery.
