What is Physical Therapy

Untitled Document

Look for the building with the blue roofPhysical therapists identify limitations in function, utilize manual therapy techniques and exercises to address these limitations, and educate patients to enable them to achieve their goals. Because of the advanced and specialized education that physical therapists receive (anatomy, human movement, manual therapy, physics, and more), they are experts in the human body and how to get you moving again. Physical therapy can help you recover from an injury, prevent injury altogether, and achieve long term results.

At McCready Orthopedic and Sports Rehab, our expert therapists work with you to provide an individualized treatment program, specific to your needs and focused on your goals. We pride ourselves in providing only the best care through application of evidence-based methods.
