What is Hands-On Therapy?

Hands-on therapy refers to manual therapies. Physical therapists use hands-on treatments as a primary source of care. These specialized treatment options include manipulating the joints and soft tissue with the goal of correcting musculoskeletal dysfunction.

With hands-on therapy, you receive a non-invasion solution to resolve pain, functional limitations or reduced mobility. Additionally, it provides a pain management alternative to prescription pain medication.

Integrated Systems Model (ISM)

ISM Physical Therapy Specialists

At Physical Therapy Specialists, we use the Integrated Systems Model to assess musculoskeletal problems throughout the body. The foundation of ISM involves understanding the connection between multiple regions of the body. Impairments in one region of the body can influence the entire body.

The goals of ISM are to improve quality of life by restoring function, resolving pain and increasing stability. By evaluating the whole body, we develop a treatment plan specific to you based on your symptoms and goals for healing.

Pain impacts your life and limits how you engage in daily activities, hobbies and relationships. We don’t want to simply mask your pain! We want to help you find lasting solutions to fully participate in your life and get back to what you enjoy doing!
