When you meet with your Nose Creek physical therapist, they will begin by looking for reduced mobility or stiffness in the joint. These joints once identified are mobilized and/or manipulated.

Your Nose Creek Physiotherapist corrects muscle imbalances in one of two ways. For weak muscles, appropriate exercise are prescribed to strengthen them to optimum levels.

For tight muscles, your sport physical therapist will prescribe stretches to lengthen muscles to original length.

Your Nose Creek Physical Therapist will measure the mobility of key nerves that connect from your spinal cord to your muscles. Once they have identified where the nerve is being impinged; specific techniques are then applied to mobilize the nerve and restore normal mobility and function.

Muscle stimulation current -is used to reduce muscle atrophy after an injury has made it through the inflammatory phase of the healing process.  It is often applied to the muscles parallel to the spine, quadriceps, knee muscle, and rotator cuff muscles.  The current reboots the nerve if has been pinched or inhibited which then signals the muscle to contract.
 

Acupuncture

Nose Creek Sport Physical Therapy has various advanced equipment on hand to facilitate healing, and to decrease pain and swelling.

 
Interferential Current - will increase circulation to the injured tissue to assist in speeding up the healing process. It reduces your pain by stimulating the sensory nerves in the area it is applied to, and is most commonly used in initial first stages of a new or recent injury.  Usually applied to the back, arms and legs.

Ultrasound is an oscillating current that causes a vibration of the soft tissue.  This vibration results in friction within the tissue that produces heat that facilitates blood flow to the tissue to healing.  Because ultrasound softens the tissue to make it more pliable, it is great to use on scar tissue after moderate muscle strain (tear).  It is commonly used on superficial ligaments, tendons and muscles.

Dry Needling - Is used to treat Chronic Neuropathic pain.  The therapist will insert an acupuncture needle using a plunger into the tightened muscle. It will often result in a muscle twitch and the relaxation and lengthening of the chronically tight/shortened muscle.
