HYPERMOBILITY

Research shows that nearly 20% of our population deal with excessive hypermobility. Hypermobility leaves an individual with excessively loose joints, poor movement patterns, difficulty gaining and maintaining strength, increased sensitivity to different environmental stressors, and more.  Different disease processes that represent this spectrum are Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Marfan's Syndrome, Generalized Hypermobility Disorders, to name a few.  Our state of the art program looks to teach individuals how to heal themselves and sustain the progress accomplished through therapy.  With education, manual therapy, education, movement pattern training, strengthening, ergonomic education, and more, we are proud to have incredible success with these individuals.  Want to know more about hypermobility and find out if you have it?  Give us a call!  We have experts in the field who are also hypermobile and understand how to work with the client with hypermobility.

ABDOMINAL PAIN

Chronic abdominal pain is a challenging presentation across healthcare. Our groundbreaking program utilizes different intervention strategies to help people recover from abdominal pain from a multitude of diagnoses.  We provide a holistic approach, including: education on the neuroscience of pain, evaluating aspects of each individual from the muscles of the abdomen, the nervous system, the spine, stress reactions, nutrition, hydration, sleep, and more.  All of these factors make up our primary approach to address abdominal pain.  We also have a post-operative abdominal program following gastrointestinal surgery.  This program develops a proper recovery strategy ensuring proper scar mobility, nervous system recovery, strength, and range of motion in order to live a long and healthy life!

PELVIC HEALTH

Did you know that physical therapy is an amazing profession that can work with individuals with pelvic floor dysfunction?  If you’re having issues with pelvic floor pain, pain with intercourse, incontinence, constipation, diastasis recti, pelvic organ prolapse, our specialists can help you!  Did you know that 12.8% of women who had never given birth report pelvic floor dysfunction? This percentage increases to 18.4% after one child, 24.6% after two children, and 32.4% after 3 or more children. We offer preventive screens, as well, because we believe that each woman would benefit from a consultation with a specialist following a pregnancy in order to improve quality of life, recovery, and prevent future issues that may present down the road!
