Heal Knee Pain And Disability With Physical Therapy

You may be having knee pain or just had surgery. Your knee is probably stiff and immobile. You may feel like the last thing that you want to do is move around and get on your feet but Physical Therapy will likely help you get your strength back.

Physical Therapy, PT, or rehab as it is called helps to ease muscle and joint pain. Our Howard Beach physical therapists guide you back to recovery and are with you every step of the process. We focus on hands-on physical therapy and really seek to understand your lifestyle and desires to help you achieve your ideal lifestyle.

Cross Bay Physical Therapy includes strategies such as stretching and exercising, ice and eat, ultrasound massage, and electrical muscle or nerve stimulation. Our physical therapists understand both the ideal movements of the body as well as what is stopping you from achieving the ideal flexibility and strength.

Individualized, Hands-On Attention

A knee injury is painful but with physical therapy, it is possible to get back to full health and mobility. Each patients gets created an individualized treatment plan at their first session based on the type of injury, severity of injury, and lifestyle. Sometimes, physical therapy is all you need to heal yourself. Physical Therapy is considered an effective alternative to surgery for a variety of knee conditions.

At your first session, one of our physical therapists will work one on one with you and cone up with a treatment plan. He or she will discuss how to rebuild the movement and strength of your knee and legs. This way you can participate and understand the path of your recovery.

You probably need physical therapy if:

1. You are experiencing pain in your knee.
2. It is difficult for you to balance.
3. You feel pain when you move your lower leg back and forth.
4. It is difficult to stand on one leg.
5. You have weak muscles in your legs, especially in the front and back of your thigh.

One of our Howard Beach physical therapist may ask you to hop on one leg and take a short walk on one of the treadmills. He or she is trying to expose your weak spots and then put a plan in place to turn those weak spots into strong ones. Our physical therapists may also recommend you tools to help you recover and prevent further knee damage such as crutches, a walker, or special shoes.

Your health is of the utmost importance to us and we will fight for you to get better as quickly as possible.
