Physical Therapy

Physical therapy is a health care specialty that focuses on evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of disorders of the musculoskeletal system. The goal of physical therapy is to restore each individual patient to full functional ability without pain or disability.

To achieve this goal, the physical therapists at First Health first perform a thorough evaluation which enables an accurate diagnosis to be made. They then utilize a number of treatment options including active therapeutic exercise, manual techniques such as stretching and massage, and passive modalities such as ultrasound, electrical muscle stimulation, and traction, all with the ultimate goal of helping you reach your full functional capability.
