Our Physical Therapy Services

Physical therapy in San Ramon, CA can treat several conditions-

• Orthopedic Injuries (e.g., sprains, strains, fractures)
• Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
• Sports-Related Injuries
• Neurological Disorders (e.g., stroke, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis)
• Chronic Pain Conditions (e.g., back pain, neck pain, arthritis)
• Balance and Gait Disorders
• Workplace Injuries
• Pediatric and Geriatric Conditions

Our specialists offer various techniques, including manual therapy, exercise therapy, ultrasound therapy, and hot and cold therapy, among others, to help you regain form. Active release therapy(ART) is a form of manual therapy that we’ve used to help many people overcome musculoskeletal conditions like muscle strains and sprains, chronic pain, sports injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, and many other injuries involving the neck, back, and shoulders (aka the core).  The technique is effective for injuries related to activities in athletics—overuse injuries, in particular. And for injuries involving nerve compressions, such as in the wrist or elbow, ART works wonders.

Sports injury rehabilitation/sports injury treatment/sports therapy

Although sports exercise your muscles, sustaining an injury is still possible. Unfortunately, these injuries may reduce your strength and even prevent you from playing the same sport in the future. But physical therapy can help. Each athlete who seeks treatment at our facility will have a customized program. This allows for maximum potential for injury healing and maintaining pre-injury sports performance levels. Because injuries heal at different rates, following the treatment plan laid out by your physical therapist is essential for returning to previous sports involvement.

At our facility, your care plan will likely include manual therapy, exercises, and modalities like rest, ice, and heat therapy. Physical therapy in San Ramon, CA generally aims to help you regain strength, balance, and mobility after an injury. The treatment also promotes pain relief and helps you heal properly to prevent a recurrence of your pain.

Pilates

We offer physical therapy pilates which combines traditional Pilates with physical therapy techniques to improve specific physical functions such as balance, strength, and flexibility. Physical therapy pilates (or Rehab pilates) is suitable for individuals recovering from an injury or surgery, older adults, athletes, pregnant or post-partum women, those with chronic pain, and anyone who wants to improve their general fitness.

It’s not generally a good idea for injured people to go to the generic Pilates, Barre, or yoga group classes. The instructors at these places are not usually trained in rehabilitation and safe exercises for injuries. As a result, these types of classes can aggravate any existing symptoms or may even cause an injury. Instead, we recommend coming to see our licensed and certified physical therapists who can design a Pilates program that is safe and effective for the best outcome. Our physical therapists in San Ramon, CA start with a thorough evaluation in order to design a tailored Rehab Pilates plan to meet the goals of each of our clients. Any relevant history, symptoms, and diagnoses are taken into consideration to ensure our Rehab Pilates sessions are a suitable and safe treatment option. 

Pelvic floor therapy

Pelvic floor therapy is great for people who have urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, urinary tract infection, pain during sexual intercourse, and chronic pelvic pain. If you visit us with any of these problems, our physical therapist in San Ramon, CA, will begin with a comprehensive assessment of your condition, including a thorough evaluation of your pelvic floor muscles and how they function to identify the areas of dysfunction.

Based off the initial assessment, our specialists will develop a care plan including manual therapy and targeted, personalized exercises tailored to your body’s specific needs, like pelvic floor exercises (Kegels), stretching, core strengthening exercises, and postural alignment strategies. Client education is another key part of our pelvic floor therapy program because you need information on specific postures, movement patterns, and body mechanics to reduce the strain on your pelvic floor muscles.

Running gait analysis

If you’re an athlete who runs a lot, you know how important proper form and technique are to stay at your best. There are new technologies that can study and improve the way you run, and we offer them through our running gait analysis program. Our experienced team will use high-end equipment like high-speed cameras, force plates, and advanced biomechanical analysis software to assess your running technique, especially foot strike, stride pattern, and overall biomechanics. After we analyze your performance and identify your needs, we can proceed to correct deficiencies with exercises; re-training walking style; strengthening muscles & improving flexibility.

You should also check out our bulletproof runner program- a training scheme created especially for runners who want to achieve their goals without getting injured – regardless of whether they’re beginners or professionals. 

Blood Flow Restriction Training

If you’re recovering from an injury or trying to boost your strength and endurance, blood flow restriction training with our experienced physical therapists in San Ramon, CA, will get you the desired results. At the basic level, this training involves restricting blood flow to the limbs to allow for buildup of metabolites in the muscle, thereby increasing muscle force and growth, and injury recovery time.

Blood flow restriction training is best left to professionals like us, who evaluate every client meticulously to arrive at the safest and most effective pressure to use during training.
