Your Physical Therapy Experience

Your first appointment includes a full evaluation of your mobility, strength, balance, and pain levels. From there, our therapists build a personalized plan designed around your goals — whether that means returning to work, walking without assistance, or reducing daily pain.

Because our therapy team works inside a neurology practice, your rehabilitation stays coordinated with your medical diagnosis and treatment plan. Vestibular therapy for dizziness and vertigo can be scheduled directly from your neurology visit, and patients whose headaches start in the neck receive therapy that works hand-in-hand with the Headache Institute’s treatment pathway.

Sessions are typically 40 minutes, one to three times per week depending on your condition and goals.
