Physical Therapy
Physical therapists are experts in restoration and preservation of physical function and mobility. Physical therapists perform an evaluation and design a treatment program to help restore physical health that has been lost to injury, disease or other causes. The goals are to minimize pain, restore function, and promote adaptation to improve quality of life.
