Chronic Pain

The effective management of chronic pain conditions necessitates the collaborative efforts of a diverse team of healthcare professionals, along with the expertise of proficient physical therapists. Conventional orthopedic physical therapy approaches may not always yield favorable outcomes for patients and, in some instances, can even exacerbate their pain. Therapists who specialize in chronic pain conditions possess the necessary competencies and experience to identify the physical factors contributing to the perpetuation of a patient’s condition, formulate strategies for their mitigation, and facilitate the patient’s progression toward achieving their optimal functional capacity. Furthermore, these therapists possess an insightful understanding of the psychological aspects associated with chronic pain.

Our physical therapists maintain a close working relationship with the referring physicians, providing them with invaluable insights into the patient’s condition. These insights encompass alterations in muscle tone, the presence of trigger points, the patient’s response to medication, and the physical manifestations of emotional elements or sleep disturbances.
