What to Expect from Jennifer Klein Physical Therapy:
As Physical Therapists, we work to restore function, improve mobility, and decrease pain with the goal of reestablishing a patient’s prior level of function.
We will evaluate, identify objective findings, make an assessment, & develop a treatment plan for each patient on an individual basis. Objective testing may include some of the following categories: motion, strength, posture, reflexes, muscle tension, joint mobility, balance, agility, coordination, & special tests pertaining to your symptoms and or diagnosis.
We develop a treatment plan specific to addressing the pertinent objective findings. Each patient’s individual treatment plan is geared toward reaching specific goals that are set by the Physical Therapist & the patient together. The treatment plan may include traditional PT modalities, such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, heat/cold therapy, as well as homeopathic approaches such as cupping & dry needling. Manual therapy such as joint or soft tissue mobilization may also be included. Exercises may be incorporated to address weakness, tightness, instability, lack of balance, & coordination; both traditional PT exercises and exercises utilizing Pilates equipment.
