Back and neck pain are among the most common complaints in medical offices today. And, for many people, injuries and related orthopedic problems restrict everyday activities, reduce athletic performance and adversely affect the quality of life.
At the Jackson Clinics we incorporate the latest advances in evaluation and treatment to offer you a long-lasting solution to these problems. Our manual therapy techniques, exercise, and patient education help speed the healing process to get you back quickly to sports, work and daily activities and help you prevent future injury.
If you have a work or sports related injury, have had surgery involving the spine or extremities, have been involved in a motor vehicle accident, or suffer from any of these conditions, we can help:
- Low back pain
- Neck pain
- Shoulder injuries
- Sacroiliitis: pelvic girdle dysfunction
- Foot and ankle dysfunction and orthotic fabrication
- Knee instability
- Patellofemoral problems
- Post surgical rehabilitation (knee, shoulder, etc)
- Degenerative disc conditions
- Arthritis
- Osteoporosis
- Finger/hand injuries
- Gait related issues: leg length discrepancies, neurological conditions
Your treatment at The Jackson Clinics begins with a comprehensive examination by one of our licensed professional physical therapists in consultation with your physician. Tests performed during the evaluation include measurements of your:
- Overall health
- Strength
- Flexibility
- Balance
- Range of motion joints
- Posture
- Gait
- Body structure
- Soft tissue mobility
- Functional movements: the way in which bones, muscles, ligaments and joints work together
Following the initial evaluation, an individualized plan of care based on your goal and needs is developed. Subsequent treatment is provided in "one on one" sessions with your physical therapist followed by exercise with our licensed physical therapy assistant. Your specially tailored program is designed to treat your existing condition and to help you avoid future recurrence of pain and/or surgery.
