Orthopedics
At Pick PT, our expertise is in orthopedics – the treatment of musculoskeletal issues that impact movement. Orthopedics is a specialty in medicine that focuses on correction functional impairments of the musculoskeletal system, which includes all bones, muscles, cartilage, tendons, ligaments, and joints in the body.
At Pick PT, we provide excellent treatment for the following areas in the body:
- Cervical
- Thoracic
- Shoulder
- Elbow
- Wrist & Hand
- Lumbar
- Pelvis
- Hip
- Knee
- Ankle & Foot
Our evaluation process goes beyond the typical localized assessment of pain to also examine the additional effects that an injury or illness can have on posture and global body movement. We also take care to explore the various possible causes of the immediate problem that brings a client to our office – some of which may be rooted in mechanical patterns that have existed for a prolonged period of time. We treat bones, joints and muscles, in a manner that recognizes the global relationships between parts of the body and between different body systems. We understand that injury to one body part not only affects that specific structure, but also the way that the whole body moves. Effectively treating global musculoskeletal function results in better rehabilitation outcomes and reduces the risks of repeated injury. Our customized treatments will assist patients in returning to daily functions and desired daily physical activities as soon as possible.
