Physical Rehabilitation

Along with chiropractic care, In Motion Chiropractic and Rehabilitation is proud to offer a variety of physical rehabilitation services, including all levels of stretching, exercise, and more. Through these techniques, we aim to help our patients improve muscle strength, flexibility, and range of motion following severe injury or loss of function.

How long does it take?

Our practice is home to highly-skilled professionals who are equipped to assess and address injuries as well as evaluate underlying mechanical and structural problems that may be contributing to more obvious symptoms. Depending on the severity of the injury and the current condition of the individual, recovery times can span from a few weeks to several months. Physical rehabilitation is often expedited when used in combination with chiropractic care.

Is Physical Therapy Effective As a Stand Alone Treatment?

Here at In Motion Chiropractic and Rehabilitation we firmly believe in the application of every effective form of treatment to achieve the best result possible. That being said, no one treatment is considered a cure-all for any one person. Therapy, much like other recovery modalities, depends on its efficacy for the patient as well as other factors such as time, cost, and enjoyment. Not all forms of therapy have to be painful or lack engagement for the patient. This is why many of our patients love our physical therapy program. We blend the perfect amount of passive and active recovery tactics to create a therapy program that partners perfectly with any of our other forms of recovery – or can function as a standalone as well. We can’t wait to show you what your body is capable of, reach out to our staff today to schedule a consultation!
