of Physical Therapy   Sometimes Doctors want to try a different
approach where the patient is more actively engaged, and that is
where physical therapy comes in.  Let’s say somebody is referred
in with a headache, muscle tension, and pain issues, we would do
an initial evaluation, find out where the deficits lie, whether
it’s restrictive motion, or tight muscles.  Then we would
address those by using different treatment techniques. Those
might be using electric muscle stimulation, along with moist
heat, and then again we might do some stretching of tissue, some
massage, and then give them stretching exercises which they take
home with them and use to decrease the symptoms and keep things
at bay. We give them tools to use on their own so that they can
effectively manage their own condition.  User Agent: CCBot/2.0 -
