At AmeriCare, we are specialists in treating the following conditions:
Orthopedic Care
Orthopedic care physical therapy is the evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders and injuries. Joint mobilizations, strength training, hot packs and cold packs are often used to speed recovery. Those who have suffered injury or disease affecting the muscles, bones, ligaments or tendons may benefit from orthopedic care physical therapy.
Spinal Conditions
Back pain is the number one reason patients seek physical therapy. The key to successful rehabilitation of spinal disorders is by assessing the problem, creating an individualized treatment program and focusing on education and prevention of future recurrence.
Sports Injuries
Sports injuries are injuries that happen when playing sports or exercising. Some are from accidents. Others can result from poor training practices or improper gear.
