PHYSICAL THERAPY

Physical Therapy is a scientific discipline focused on restoring a person’s movement capabilities to ease pain, restore function and improve quality of life. Through meticulous assessment, a person’s movement dysfunctions are identified in order to create an individualized plan of care to treat injuries and musculoskeletal conditions. Physical therapists are movement experts who provide manual therapy techniques, prescribe exercises, and provide education in order to empower patients and provide them with the tools they need to improve their lives. At AFM, an individualized treatment program is developed for your unique needs in order to restore function and meet your goals.

INJURY PREVENTION

Proper assessment of your movement dysfunction is key to determine your risk for injury for a specific sport or recreational activity. AFM’s in-depth screening and a battery of return to sport tests help us identify major mobility, strength, motor control/coordination asymmetries, which result in imbalances that may increase the risk for injury or negatively impact performance. Your tailored injury prevention program will get you back into optimal shape and allow movement and activity with more confidence, less pain and less risk for injury.
