Exercises are foten provided to improve range of motion, mobility, coordination, balance, and strength. Many physical exercises can be used in conjunction with therapeutic programs including heat, cold, and electrical stimulation.

Q: Do I Need to Attend Every Scheduled Session?

Regular attendance is important to progress in physical therapy. To obtain maximum benefit, we request your avoidance of missed appointments. Due to the importance of continuity of care, failure to attend three consecutive appointments will result in discharge from your therapy program. Further treatment would necessitate a new physician prescription.

If you miss a scheduled appointment, we ask your cooperation in notifying us a minimum of 24 hours prior to your visit, to assist in the rescheduling process.
