  Myofascial release therapy can help with a number of conditions, such as muscle injury, carpal tunnel syndrome, TMJ disorder, blood pooling, and even chronic headaches.  Limited mobility and circulation issues are also often good candidates for myofascial release therapy.

Surgeons

• Sciatica
  If you’re experiencing any back pain, signs of sciatica, or other issues, give H/S Therapy a call and we can start you on the road to recovery.
• Whiplash
  Neck Injuries: Neck strains, compressed nerves, or even whiplash can occur in football as players often make hard contact with eachother, or get hit from the side.
• Joint Replacement
  While surgery should often be the last resort, there are occasions where joint replacement is necessary.  If a joint has deteriorated to the point where it is unusable, a severe trauma causing irreparable damage to the joint, or a patient is living in chronic pain, joint replacement may be necessary.  Once you have discussed your options with your orthopedic surgeon, we can help you prepare for your surgery, and then, once your surgery is complete, we can help you recover.

Physical Therapists

• Sports Medicine
• Physical Therapy
  On average, people get into car accidents every 7 years.  While not all accidents involve serious injury, oftentimes small “fender-benders” can cause unwanted pain which manifests itself weeks after the accident.  It is here which physical therapy can help.  Whether it’s stiffness in the back, chronic headaches, or pain in an area of the body which sustained damage, physical therapy can help circulate blood and oxygen to the affected area, helping to heal and relieve the pain.
• Frozen Shoulder
  There are many cases where joint mobilization therapy can help reduce inflammation, increase mobility, and alleviate pain.  Ankle sprains, rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, and even issues such as golfer’s or tennis elbow can all benefit from joint mobilization therapy.  While joint mobilization is not appropriate for every case, H/S Physical Therapy can evaluate your individual situation and recommend a course of action for you which may include joint mobilization therapy.  It is important to have your condition assessed medically before you begin any treatment, which is why we always evaluate you based on your unique issues before we begin any course of mobilization therapy.
• Tennis Elbow
  “Tennis Elbow” is another condition commonly suffered by golfers.  While golfer’s elbow affects the inside portion of the elbow, tennis elbow affects the bonier outside portion.  Both conditions need rest and therapy to correct.
• Back Pain
• Manual Therapy
  Joint mobilization therapy is a specific form of manual therapy focused on the joints.  It is a process by which your physical therapist moves and mobilizes your joints passively.  Your joints are complex machines with lots of moving parts and connective tendons and ligaments.  Your body is made of multiple types of joints which serve different functions – hinge joints like your knee, ball and sockets such as your shoulder or hip, and even more complex compound joints which help parts like your wrists to move in much more unique ways.  Sometimes, a joint can become inflamed or irritated.  Often the muscles and tendons become tense and immobilize the joint.   Joint mobilization therapy is helpful to begin to release the joint and get it functioning correctly.
• TMJ Dysfunction
  There are several causes for jaw pain, and not all of them point to TMJ dysfunction.  It is important to correctly diagnose TMJ dysfunction before we begin a course of treatment.  Some of the issues we’ll address in our initial consultation are the following...

Podiatrists

• Achilles Tendonitis

• Ankle Sprain
  There are many ways physical therapy can help you with your foot or ankle injury.  Once we determine what and where the injury has occured, we can start a comprehensive physical therapy treatment to first help alleviate the discomfort, and then to strengthen the areas around the injured area.  This serves to help prevent re-injury to the feet and ankles.  Many times, physical therapy can completely solve the problem, avoiding surgeries and harsh medications.  Give us a call at (215)
• Flat Feet
  If you’ve ever sprained an ankle or had a broken toe, you know how debilitating an ankle or foot injury can be.  From arthritic conditions, fallen arches, plantar fasciitis, to sprains, tendonitis, or even fractures, your ankles and feet can fall prey to a wide variety of issues.  Like your hips and knees, your feet and ankles absorb much wear and tear during the course of your day.
• Foot Injuries
• Plantar Fasciitis
  This occurs when the tissue which runs from the heal to the toes becomes inflamed and causes pain.
