Body Mechanics and Ergonomics Training

Proper technique is vital when we are performing tasks such as lifting, vacuuming, sweeping, washing dishes, reaching for objects, etc. Poor technique can lead to low back pain, shoulder pain, and neck pain – to name a few. You may have heard the phrase, “Lift with your legs, not your back.” Do you know exactly what this means? How do we lift properly with our legs?

Pre and Post Surgical Rehabilitation

Many people understand the need for physical therapy after surgery. However, did you know that physical therapy could be important even before surgery? It is important to be as strong and mobile as possible up until the day of surgery.

Posture Education

The way we position ourselves throughout the day can have a big impact on our joints, ligaments, and muscles. Your therapist will educate you on proper posture during tasks such as sitting, standing, walking, and sleeping. Muscle flexibility, joint mobility, and muscle strength may also play an important role in our posture.

Balance Training

Everyone has a risk of falling – some have a higher risk than others. As our bodies get weaker, our balance may also deteriorate. According to the CDC, one out of five falls causes a serious injury, such as a broken bone or head injury. Each year, 2.9 million older people are treated in emergency departments for fall injuries. More than 95% of hip fractures are caused by falling – usually by falling sideways.

Walking and Running Gait Assessment

The way in which we walk or run can affect our entire body. Your therapist will conduct a gait assessment, which you will then be able to see our on screen television. Using technology for seeing joint angles and alignments, you will be educated on what impairments are leading to symptoms or dysfunction. Appropriate stretches, exercises, and/or manual therapy will then be provided in order to correct your movement patterns.
