We Use a Variety of Tools in Our Physical Therapy

In our business, we implement several tools to help people attain the right level of physical therapy they require. Some of the tools we use are:

Resistance Bands

These bands are implemented to give resistance during exercises. When you use such bands in regular exercise, it improves strength in your damaged muscles. Your muscles are putting up with resistance greater than normally anticipated to perform the same task, thereby increasing their capacity.

Foam Rollers

These are used for self-massage during physical therapy. While you undergo our exercise and manual therapy, the foam rollers enable an extra layer of cushioning to the weakened portion of the body. They help release the tightness in muscles so you can attain a loose-flowing motion.

Braces and Supports

While the individual is undertaking orthopedic physiotherapy, the injured parts of their body may be suffering excessively. The person can experience heightened pain or weakness in the affected areas during physical therapy. This is where our braces and supports can help support the impacted portions of their body. With the help of our different types of braces and other supporting tools, the injured area has extra stability so it can perform without straining the body too much.
