They are proficient at identifying the root cause of issues that, often, can be fully resolved with conservative measures and specific treatment techniques including hands-on manual treatment, dynamic strengthening, and stretching. Your therapist will collaborate with you to identify specific movement patterns and activities that are challenging or painful to ensure your treatment is specifically tailored toward what is most important to you.
