Levels of Care
Outpatient
Outpatient rehab physical therapy is designed for patients who are in need of physical therapy due to an injury or serious medical condition but are independent enough to receive these services while living at home. The focus of outpatient physical therapy is helping people improve their mobility and quality of life, so they can get back to daily activities. Visits tend to be between 40 and 60 minutes, with additional exercises that a patient can do at home. An outpatient physical therapy clinic may also offer other services such as aquatic therapy, biofeedback, massage, and more.

Medical Exercise Therapy
Exercise therapy (also known as active rehabilitation) consists of a regimen of physical activities prescribed by a physiotherapist to help a patient recover from conditions that impact movement and quality of life. Physical therapy exercise is used to address both common and more complex injuries and conditions. It focuses on moving the body and its different parts to relieve symptoms, improve mobility and levels of fitness. This includes gait training, neuro re‐education and customized therapeutic exercises designed to improve agility, balance, coordination, flexibility, range of motion, strength and muscle endurance and performance-specific activity.
Spine, Back and Neck Therapy
Physiotherapy can provide relief for cervical, back, and neck pain. A physiotherapist will typically use a combination of different therapies such as electrical stimulation, ergonomic supports, heat, ice, joint mobilization, massage for lower back pain, ultrasound, soft tissue mobilization, traction, and therapeutic exercises. The goal of neck rehabilitation and physiotherapy for back pain is to reduce pain and inflammation while increasing mobility.
