In many cases, physical therapy can help patients increase leg mobility. In doing so, they can stretch, flex and strengthen the muscles responsible for support. If a joint appears deformed, or if sudden swelling occurs, contact a physician immediately. A good physical therapy program can assist with post- operation treatment, too. If you’ve undergone treatment for osteoporosis, dislocation or a fracture, your therapist can help you reclaim full mobility—and a healthy lifestyle. From start to finish, we’re dedicated to your ongoing wellness. On every level, physical therapy serves to enhance the patient’s quality of life. We’re here to help, and we have years of experience backing every therapy option. Contact one of our providers today, and tell us about your symptoms.

“I first came to MDM in September 2018 after my right knee surgery. Working with Mark and his staff, and a lot of hard work, I got my knee better enough to start playing golf again! With their help I went on to strengthen my legs and back. After two years, at the age of 78 I am in the best shape I have ever been in my life. With what I’ve learned, I plan to keep in good shape. Thank you MDM!” - Phil T. Success Spotlight
