Comprehensive Physical Therapy Services

Physical Therapy

Our therapists prioritize not only treating your condition and restoring pain-free function but also preventing future injuries through patient education. We combine hands-on manual therapy with exercises tailored to your needs, including stretching, strengthening, endurance, balance, and aerobics. These exercises aim to increase flexibility, reduce joint stress, strengthen muscles, and mobilize joints. Our therapists are dedicated to helping you achieve your goals and return to everyday activities at home, work, and play while preventing future injuries.

Dry Needling

Dry needling is based on the idea that trigger point pain deep within muscular tissue and fascia is a common cause of musculoskeletal and joint pain. By targeting and breaking up these trigger points, dry needling can create a relaxing effect in the muscle tissue, helping to calm inflamed and sore areas.

Manual Therapy

Whether dealing with soft tissue damage from acute or chronic pain, spinal dysfunction, or post-operative orthopedic recovery, manual therapy and soft tissue mobilization play a key role in our specialized treatment plans. By combining manual treatment with our advanced orthopedic rehabilitation techniques, we provide a comprehensive approach that sets our rehab team apart.

Orthopedic Rehabilitation

The Sage team collaborates with individuals experiencing a variety of orthopedic issues, such as soft tissue injuries or diseases, and post-surgical cases including fractures, total hip/knee replacements, and tendon or ligament repairs. We focus on helping patients restore strength, mobility, and endurance to resume their daily routines at home.

Neurological Rehabilitation

Sage offers a comprehensive, multidisciplinary approach to neurological rehabilitation, including neuromuscular re-education, coordination training, vestibular therapy, desensitization, and muscle and sensory re-education. Our highly skilled professionals provide specialized care tailored to each patient's unique needs.

Sports Physical Therapy

Sage Physical Therapy’s Sports Physical Therapy program is designed to help athletes recover from sports-related injuries and safely return to the activities they enjoy. Our experienced therapists develop individualized treatment plans focused on restoring strength, mobility, balance, endurance, and sport-specific movement. Whether recovering from an acute injury, surgery, or an overuse condition, we work with each athlete to improve performance, reduce the risk of re-injury, and confidently return to their sport.

Vestibular Rehabilitation

Sage's vestibular rehabilitation program aims to assist individuals experiencing dizziness, vertigo, imbalance, and other inner ear disorders. Vestibular rehabilitation is a non-invasive, drug-free approach that addresses balance issues and dizziness through conservative means.

Functional Capacity Evaluations (FCEs)

Sage's three to five hour evaluation assesses a person's ability to safely function in their usual work environment. It examines strength, flexibility, and capacity to perform tasks such as lifting, carrying, kneeling, and squatting which helps the client and rehabilitation team understand the individual's current capabilities and create a treatment plan for a safe return to work.

Work Hardening/Conditioning Program

Sage's Work Hardening/Conditioning program is a goal-oriented program that utilizes a multi-dimensional approach designed to help injured workers in their safe return to work. It involves assessing and improving physical tolerance, enhancing flexibility, mobility, and strength, and learning safer work techniques, among other components.

Aquatic Therapy

Sage's Aquatic Therapy Program offers physical therapy in a warm water setting in our HydroWorx unit. Aquatic therapy facilitates exercises such as stretching, strengthening, standing, walking, and squatting, minimizing weight-bearing impact. The water's buoyancy and hydrostatic pressure help reduce swelling, pressure, and pain in injured joints and muscles, often decreasing healing time for many injuries.

Low Back Program

Lower back pain can arise from various factors such as muscle strain, poor posture, overuse, and spinal injuries. While many cases of back pain are general, conditions like Osteoarthritis, Herniated Disc, Degenerative Disc, Spondylolisthesis, and Spinal Stenosis require specific diagnosis and treatment. Our physical therapists review your medical history, assess your current condition, and investigate the underlying causes of your pain to develop a targeted recovery plan. They also provide initial education on managing the issue, guide you on proper body mechanics during daily activities, teach self-stretching exercises, and offer advice on improving spinal nutrition and spine care. This comprehensive approach aims to accelerate your recovery and alleviate or eliminate pain in the long term.
