What Can Physical Therapy Help With?
Little Falls patients most often come to us for:
Back and neck pain. From lifting, desk work, yard work or a disc problem. If a disc is involved, our spinal decompression in Clifton guide explains that option.
Knee and hip pain. From wear and tear, running, hiking or an old sports injury.
Shoulder pain. From overhead work, lifting or a rotator cuff problem.
Tendon pain. Such as tennis elbow and plantar fasciitis. Read about shockwave therapy in Clifton.
Car accident and work injuries. Including whiplash and workers' compensation cases.
Recovery after surgery. Rebuilding strength and movement after an orthopedic operation.
