If pain, muscle tightness, or nerve irritation is slowing you down, we’re here to help you feel safe and hopeful.

You set the goals; we tailor care to your comfort and preferences. No pressure, no sales pitches—just thoughtful, patient-first care that treats you like family.
What Physiotherapy Looks Like Here
We pair hands-on care with selective modalities when they can help you feel better faster. Therapeutic ultrasound uses sound waves to calm irritation in soft tissues and support healing; sessions typically run 5-15 minutes depending on the area. Electrical stimulation (e-stim) delivers gentle currents that help reduce pain and relax or retrain tight muscles; sessions are often about 15 minutes. Heat or cold therapy may be added to ease soreness and stiffness. Most physiotherapy visits run 10-20 minutes, and many plans cover these services; our front desk happily verifies benefits before you start.
Conditions Physiotherapy Can Help
Physiotherapy can ease pain, improve motion, and support activity at every age and stage. It’s a versatile tool we customize for your needs, including:
- Back and neck pain
- Muscle spasm and tightness
- Joint sprains and strains
- Radiating pain/sciatica
- Sports and overuse injuries
- Post-surgical discomfort (after surgical release)
- Headaches tied to muscle tension
- Arthritis-related stiffness
When We Add Decompression Traction
For certain spinal issues, we may recommend decompression traction. This table-based therapy gently stretches the spine to reduce disc pressure and nerve irritation, often helping with herniated discs and radicular, radiating pain. We usually begin with adjustments, stretches, and exercises, then add traction if symptoms persist or imaging (like an MRI), exam findings, or an antalgic lean suggest it will help. Sessions are commonly around 20 minutes, and settings are individualized for comfort. Coverage varies by plan, and traction is often a cash service; we’ll discuss options up front.
