We’ll be assessing and evaluating everything from your range of motion, strength, coordination, pain level, posture, and even relative connective tissue tension in order to devise an accurate diagnosis.
Based on our exam findings, as well as the information we glean from questioning you about your current and past medical history, we’ll be able to devise a customized and effective treatment plan to meet your unique needs.
Your therapist will need to be able to see or at least easily palpate (feel) the specific joint he or she is mobilizing (keeping in mind of course, that your privacy and comfort are of utmost concern to our staff).
Your physiotherapist will also be sure to offer you clear details on how to sit or lie during the session, what you should expect to feel, as well as what to do following your session in order to maximize effects and pain relief.
To complement and optimize the effects of joint mobilizations, we’ll also instruct you in additional services, which may include therapeutic exercises for strengthening and range of motion, modalities, postural and neuromuscular retraining, and core stability exercises. Furthermore, your treatment plan may include other techniques such as joint manipulation, soft tissue treatment, Graston technique, deep tissue massage, myofascial release techniques, active release therapy and massage therapy to aid the healing process.
