Are you looking for a drug-free, affordable solution to your pain and movement problems?

Physical therapy is a great first-line treatment for most muscle and joint problems. Clinically proven to reduce pain and dysfunction, physical therapy also saves you time and money too.

Although other kinds of practitioners will offer some of these treatments as "physical therapy," it's important for you to know that physical therapy can only be provided by qualified and licensed physical therapists.

The cornerstones of physical therapy treatment are:

  • Patient Education
  • Therapeutic Exercise
  • Functional Training
  • Hands-on Manual Therapy

Depending on the particular needs of a patient, physical therapists may also "mobilize" or "manipulate" a joint (that is, perform certain types of movements at the end of your range of motion) or perform certain soft tissue techniques to muscles to promote proper movement and function.

Hands-On Care

With AIPS, our healing capacity is not just in our Degree's but in our hands. Each of us has extensive experience in manual therapy. Manual therapy is the ability to use our clinical skills to manipulate, mobilize, re-align, and create positive change in tissue with our hands.

When appropriately utilized, hands-on care enables the body to be in the best foundational state to rebuild strength, balance, and to reduce overall pain.

My recent PT experience has been uniquely positive. Instead of simply doing the same exercises and activities, the therapist was observing my motions and directing me to activities designed to return function. Steven
