ABOUT US
Types of Treatment
Active
Range of
Motion
(AROM)
The patient lifts or moves a body part through range of motion against gravity. AROM is usually one of the first modalities prescribed for arthritis.
Active
Assistive
Range of
Motion
(AAROM)
Therapist-assisted active range of motion. This is usually prescribed for gentle stretching or strengthening for a very weak body part.
Gait or
Walking
Training
The analysis of walking problems by visually examining the interaction of the low back and the joints of the thighs, legs, and feet during the various stages of walking, including initial contact, loading response, mid stance, terminal stance, pre swing, mid swing, and terminal swing.
Soft
Tissue
Mobilization
Therapeutic massage of body tissue performed with the hands. Soft tissue mobilization may be used for muscle relaxation, to decrease swelling, to decrease scar tissue adhesions, and for pain relief.
Progressive
Resistive
Exercises
(PRE)
Exercises that gradually increase in resistance (weights) and in repetitions. PRE is usually prescribed for reeducation of muscles and strengthening. Weights, rubber bands, and body weight can be used as resistance.
Passive
Range of
Motion
(PROM)
The patient or therapist moves the body part through a range of motion without the use of the muscles that “actively” move the joint(s).
Cryotherapy or
Cold
Therapy
Used to cause vasoconstriction (the blood vessels constrict or decrease their diameter) to reduce the amount of fluid that leaks out of the capillaries into the tissue spaces (swelling) in response to injury of tissue.
Heat
Heat is recommended to decrease chronic pain, relax muscles, and for pain relief. It should not be used with an acute or “new” injury.
Transcutaneous Electrical
Nerve Stimulation (TENS)
A relatively low voltage applied over painful areas through small self-adhesive electrodes. The electrical stimulation “disguises” or “overrides” the sensation of pain. It is a small, portable unit, used in intervals, to control pain and reduce dependence on drugs.
Ultrasound
High frequency sound wave emitted from the sound head when electricity is passed through a quartz crystal. When the sound waves are pulsed, they cause a vibration of the tissue. The stream of sound waves helps with nutrition exchange at the cellular level and healing.
