Physical TherapyAt Staszak Physical Therapy & Wellness Center, we take a holistic approach to helping rehabilitate
|
|
Individualized Treatment PlansMost visits are between 45-90 minutes. This gives us the time to do manual therapy, provide coaching on proper exercises, and teach you about your injury so you will understand why we are having you do the exercises we prescribe.
Manual therapy. We utilize a variety of manual therapy techniques including myofascial release, joint mobilization, deep tissue mobilization, muscle energy, traction, Graston, and kinesio taping. Exercise. We utilize the principles of Pilates, yoga, and a variety of other exercises (including weights) in the rehabilitation process. All of these exercises are helpful, but until you begin to incorporate them into your functional daily life, they are just exercises. Posture. Poor posture, whether it is a slumping pattern or a hyperextended posture, creates a series of compensation patterns that compromise various areas of your body. Left uncorrected, poor posture can lead to inflammation, degenerative changes (such as arthritis), and eventually pain. Contact our office today for more information. |
Patient EducationEducation. We feel that education is a critical component to the rehabilitation process. If you understand your injury and the patterns that may have helped bring it on, you are more likely to work at having correct posture and alignment. In addition, when you understand why you are being asked to do certain exercises and what the impact will be, the chance that you will do your home exercises increases dramatically.

Body Mechanics AwarenessWe work on helping loosen up areas of muscle, myofascial, and joint restrictions with manual therapy. We teach you the proper way to do exercises, starting with the core stabilizers. We help you understand proper posture and body mechanics. The next step in our process is to make you aware of the ways you can integrate a variety of functional activities throughout your daily life. Engaging in our process and understanding the importance of each step will help you not only recover from your injury, but also change the patterns that may have contributed to it in the first place.
