Relieving Pain & Restoring Mobility and Function:

Holzer Clinic's Physical Therapists work to restore independence to patients who have suffered injury, accident, or illness.  Under the supervision of the Clinic medical staff, our Licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) offer a comprehensive program of pain relief, motion restoration, and strength and function enhancement.  Typically, Physical Therapy is prescribed by a physician following surgery, injury, or illness. PTs also offer education about proper body mechanics as a way for companies to decrease on-the-job injury and maximize employee productivity.

Holzer Clinic's PTs have the training and experience necessary to help patients achieve active, productive lives.  Physicians and PTs work together to evaluate patients and determine what procedures are needed at what intervals.  At Holzer Clinic, we use a wide range of non-medication modalities to relieve pain. Commonly applied procedures include heat and ice packs, whirlpool and paraffin baths, ultrasound, diathermy, electrical stimulation, Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulator (TENS), and traction.

The most common treatment is an individually designed, closely monitored program of physical exercise to restore muscle strength and endurance, enhance range of motion, and generate overall good health.

Holzer Clinic's newly renovated Occupational Health, Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation Center is equipped with sophisticated exercise equipment designed to help build strength and endurance.  Physical Therapy programs may involve computer-controlled isokinetic and isoenertial machines, cycle ergometers, upper-body ergometers, rowing machines, Nautilus, and lifting equipment.
