What is Physical Therapy?

Physical therapy (PT) uses evidence-based assessments, exercise techniques, joint mobilization, and health education to treat conditions such as chronic or acute pain, soft tissue injuries, arthritis, physical impairments, and gait disorders typically of musculoskeletal, and neurological origins. Physical therapy improves your physical functions through examination, diagnosis, prognosis, physical intervention, rehabilitation and patient education.

To meet the needs of our community, we offer 4 convenient locations – Laurel, North Laurel, Ellisville and Taylorsville.
