Orthopedic Rehabilitation

Our orthopedic specialists at Alpine Physical Therapy are trained to treat a variety of musculoskeletal conditions, incorporating the latest in treatment approaches to guide you back to an active, healthy lifestyle. We believe that successfully treating musculoskeletal conditions includes not just treating the site of pain or injury but getting to the source of why symptoms started in the first place. Our therapists complete a full evaluation at your first visit and continually reassess throughout the rehabilitation process, creating a personalized program and adjusting it you your condition, abilities, and goals along the way. Though the treatment will be personalized to your specific needs, the process often follows the following sequence:

  1. Understand your condition, manage pain and inflammation
  2. Restore range of motion
  3. Regain strength
  4. Retrain movement to reduce risk of re-injury and prepare for Step 5
  5. Return to desired activities with proper mechanics and a solid foundation– this may be as simple as walking up and down the stairs or as challenging as returning to competitive sports

At Alpine, you will have access to the latest in treatment approaches, including techniques such as functional dry needling and IASTYM, KinesioTaping and blood flow restriction therapy, force plate analysis of joint load and access to a state of the art gym at the PEAK Health and Wellness Center. Our team includes therapists who are trained as Orthopedic Clinical Specialists, Sports Conditioning Specialists, and Exercise Physiologists providing research driven treatment to get you back to doing whatever it is you love to do most.
