We are Creatures of Movement

Our body's systems rely on movement to function properly. Rest or avoiding activity may delay your healing. Immobilization often leads to additional impairments that negatively affect your recovery and overall function. Your elbow, wrist, and hand joints work together to allow you to lift, grip, twist, and move freely. When one of these areas becomes tighter, it can double or triple the load on the other joints. Limitations in joint mobility are associated with persistent pain, dysfunction, and an increased risk of re-injury. Identifying the specific cause of your pain and injury can be challenging to do on your own. Physical therapists are highly skilled at pinpointing the cause of your problems and, more importantly, how to resolve them. Once a therapist identifies the underlying causes of your pain/injury, we will develop a plan to restore your joint mobility.
