Progressive Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation recognizes the special and changing needs of golden agers. We subscribe to the philosophy that it is important to maintain an active and productive lifestyle. Our goal is simply to help you do that by reducing pain and increasing motion and function to help you enjoy your life to the fullest.
A personalized approach
As one ages maintaining a previous level of fitness can get more challenging because many people lose flexibility, strength, or balance. Conditions such as arthritis and osteoporosis or joint replacements can lead to pain and inhibit movement. We understand the challenges facing seniors and design custom programs to relieve pain in order to restore motion and function for an active lifestyle.
We don’t believe that the aging process has to negatively affect your lifestyle. In fact quite the opposite can be true with a little help. As you age, it is more important than ever to keep moving. Your body might be different and our approach may not be the same as that of a 40-year-old, but that doesn’t mean you can’t participate in sporting activities, mange daily chores and tasks or get involved in community activities.
Balance and gait
One of the most important functions that seniors must maintain is balance. Our number one priority is to evaluate all Medicare patients for risk of falling, as this is the cornerstone for maintaining good health as you age. Without proper balance every day activities become much more difficult. Even if you don’t think you could benefit from a little bit of balance, strength, and flexibility training, you probably could.

Whether you need rehabilitation for pain, an injury or surgical procedure, or want to improve your daily function and reduce the risk of falls, we used evidenced-based treatments to help you achieve your goals.
Two Convenient Locations
Where Does it Hurt? We Can Help!
Low Back/Lumbar
If you have low back pain, you are not alone. At any given time, about 25% of people in the United States report having low back pain within the past three months. In most cases, low back pain is mild and disappears on its own.
Neck/Cervical
The neck is less protected than the rest of the spine and can be vulnerable to injury and disorders that produce pain and restrict motion often affecting everyday activities. For many, it is a temporary condition disappearing with time.
Mid-Back/Thoracic
The thoracic spine encompasses the upper- and middle-back region and extends down about five inches past the bottom of the shoulder blades. Although it is solidly constructed and relatively stable, it can also be a source of pain.
Shoulder
The shoulder is not a very stable type of joint and tends to be easily injured. Pain can arise from problems with instability or impingement of the soft tissue or bony structure. Injuries can occur while performing manual labor, playing sports, or very often by repetitive movements.
Hip and Groin
The hip is a ball and socket joint designed to withstand repeated motion, but can become damanged due to overuse or injury. A groin strain is an overstretch or tearing injury to the muscles of the inner thigh or front of the hip
Knee/Hamstring/Quads
Knee pain can restrict movement, affect muscle control in the sore leg, and reduce the strength and endurance of the muscles that support the knee. The most common disease affecting the knee is osteoarthritis.
Foot/Ankle/Calf
The feet and ankles work together to provide support and mobility to the body. With proper detection, intervention, and care, most foot and ankle problems can be lessened or prevented. Calf injuries usually occur as a result of a sudden pushing off movement or from excessive over-stretching.
Hand/Wrist/Elbow
Pain in the hand, wrist, elbow or fingers is generally caused by repetitive motions, overuse, or an underlying condition like arthritis or tendonitis. It is a very common complaint. Injuries can also occur during accidents or activities.
Head/Jaw
Many children and adults suffer from chronic jaw and facial pain. Jaw pain can happen all of a sudden, or it can start off mild and become more intense over time. Identifying the underlying issue is the first step in treating this condition.
