Physical therapists are experts in movement who enhance individuals' quality of life through tailored exercise, hands-on care, and comprehensive patient education. They diagnose and treat people of all ages, ranging from newborns to seniors.

While many patients seek treatment for injuries, disabilities, or specific health conditions, physical therapists also assist individuals who aim to improve their overall health and prevent future issues.

Each therapist conducts a thorough examination of the patient and develops a customized treatment plan focused on enhancing mobility, alleviating pain, restoring function, and preventing disabilities.
