Repair at Our Old Town Physical Therapy Clinic

Regain function, eliminate pain, & prevent future problems

We emphasize active rehabilitation for long-term recovery and pain management.

While passive treatments involve actions done to the patient, like stretching or joint manipulation, our active rehabilitation involves instructing, cueing, and guiding patients through movements to create repetitive motion, train muscles, and restore optimal joint function.

 

At RESPORT, we provide physical therapy solutions to:

  • Athletes
  • Patients recovering from injury
  • Those coming to us post-surgery 
  • Patients with movement disorders 
  • Those in need of overall balance improvement 

 

Athletes and people in recovery put numerous demands on the body, and that requires a bespoke rehabilitation program to help them safely return to their routine. But physical therapy isn’t just about rehab; it’s about unlocking your full potential. 

Whether you’re bouncing back from damage or pushing for peak performance, we aim to help you move stronger, faster, and more efficiently.

Our team uses proven methods to restore and enhance mobility, including targeted exercises, advanced modalities, and performance-focused education. We build personalized training and recovery plans that keep you moving forward and performing at your best.

You don’t need to settle for downtime or drastic measures. By working together as an integrated team, we can help you avoid surgery and stay in the game safely and powerfully. And if collaboration with other specialists or doctors is needed, we’ve got you covered.

Whether you’re chasing a comeback, seeking a new personal best, or simply want to manage your pain naturally and efficiently, we’re here to fuel your journey and help you thrive. Let’s get to work.

How Physical Therapy Can Help

Physical therapy is a structured approach to rehabilitation that employs targeted body movements and unique education. These work together to improve and restore functional capabilities and encourage preventative care to keep your body safe and balanced.

At RESPORT, we prioritize your strength, flexibility, and endurance through customized exercises tailored to your specific needs. We also prevent further injury or decline by using a combination of therapeutic exercises and techniques to maximize your recovery.

Our Therapeutic Solutions

Therapeutic exercises and treatments help patients regain movement, strength, and range of motion after an injury or chronic condition. In some cases, the patient utilizes their own power, while other treatments entail no effort on the patient’s part but are delivered through natural professional services. 

 

The therapeutic techniques we provide include:

  • Myofascial release: Applying sustained pressure to release tightness and trigger points in muscles and fascia
  • Joint mobilization: Gently manipulating joints to improve range of motion and reduce stiffness
  • Soft tissue mobilization: Applying specific movements to break down adhesions and scar tissue in muscles and tendons
  • Trigger point therapy: Focuses on identifying and releasing sensitive trigger points in muscles that can cause pain in other areas
  • Dry needling: Involves inserting thin needles into specific trigger points to stimulate them and promote healing
  • Stretching and strengthening: Targeted exercises to improve flexibility, strength, balance, and mobility in affected areas

 

Each type of therapy provided will contribute to your healing and strengthening process, as well as your overall well-being, function, and comfort. Our plans offer access to a healthy lifestyle, supporting you well beyond your clinic visits.

Physical Therapy for Sprains & Strains 

Sprains and strains are common musculoskeletal injuries that impact muscles, ligaments, and tendons. While initially managed with rest and basic care, physical therapy is crucial in complete recovery. It ensures optimal healing, prevents complications, and gets you back to your desired activities faster.

Each sprain and strain is unique. Our therapists will assess your individual case and create a personalized treatment plan using a combination of appropriate therapies. 

Therapies commonly used for sprains and strains include hands-on techniques like massage, joint mobilization, and stretching to improve flexibility, reduce pain, and promote healing. 

We also want to regain stability and balance, reducing the risk of re-injury. The last step involves gradually reintroducing movements and activities specific to your daily life or sport, ensuring a safe and triumphant return.
