At Cumberland Healthcare, our physical therapists practice an individualized, “hands-on” approach to adults and pediatric patients. They develop a plan of care that promotes mobility, pain reduction, restoration of function, and disability prevention for every patient. Our physical therapists and assistants work side-by-side with their adult and pediatric patients to ensure all treatment goals are met. They provide services in various settings, including hospitals, outpatient clinics, local schools, and occupational settings.
Therapeutic exercise and functional training are the foundation of successful physical therapy treatment. Depending on a patient’s needs, our physical therapists may “manipulate” or mobilize a joint (passive movements at the end of the patient’s range of motion) or massage a muscle to promote proper movement and function. Various techniques, such as electrotherapy, ultrasound, hot packs, and ice packs, in addition to other treatments, may be performed when appropriate. Our physical therapists may develop fitness and wellness-oriented programs depending on the patient’s needs to promote healthy, active lifestyles.
