Orthopedic Rehabilitation

Kernersville Rehab Specialists Aquatic Physical Therapy

Occupational and Physical Therapists frequently treat dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system involving the spine, muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, and connective tissues. These dysfunctions impair normal mobility and limit daily activities. Utilizing a thorough and comprehensive evaluation process, your therapist will design the appropriate program to maximize your rehabilitation process. Therapy may involve the specialized skills of an Occupational Therapist (an upper extremity/ergonomic specialist) or a Physical Therapist. Treatment will often utilize a combination of flexibility, strengthening and stability activities, in conjunction with pain relieving modalities (as required), to improve recovery time. Patient education is also integral to both recovery and prevention of future injury or re-injury.
