Physical therapy is therapy intended to preserve, enhance, or restore movement and physical function that has been impaired or threatened by disease, injury, or disability. Physical therapists, or PTs, are movement experts who utilize exercise prescription, hands-on care, technology, and education to optimize a patient’s movement ability. 

Our physical therapists develop individualized plans of care to address personal needs and goals based on the most recent evidence and clinical experience. PTs provide care for patients of all ages and abilities to help them to stay active and improve their functional ability. Physical therapy can treat a wide array of diagnoses and conditions.
