Can Physical Therapy Help with Chronic Neck or Back Pain?
Because the goals of physical therapy are to increase strength and improve mobility in the affected area, it is almost always great adjunct to a pain management treatment regimen. Ask your care provider if physical therapy may be right for you.

We believe that patient education is essential for good treatment outcomes. We help each of our patients understand the factors contributing to their pain and any lifestyle changes they can make to complement their treatment.
