How physical or rehabilitative therapy Works

Modern Movement Medicine of Wilsonville OR was designed to provide an ideal environment for healing your body, through chiropractic, massage, or physiotherapy. When you arrive at our office, our physicians will take a thorough history, and evaluation of the entire body including posture and biomechanics, range of motion, and joint mobility to find out the cause of pain or disability. You will then discuss treatment options and goals so that we can customize a treatment plan catered to you.

Each session will last roughly one hour. The frequency of visits and the length of treatment is determined by the physician who prescribed the treatment. The results are typically a result of the patient's commitment. When the patient follows the plan, does their exercises as often as suggested, and uses the proper techniques, the treatment is typically very successful.

What happens at a physical or rehabilitative therapy appointment?

Prior to receiving any form of physical therapy, you will receive a full body functional assessment from one of your overseeing doctors. This examination assesses the functionality of your entire body!

Once your Doctor has gathered all the information they need, they will ask you what your priorities are and what you wish to achieve. They will then develop a treatment plan around your condition and goals.

A full body approach to our functional examination is vital to understanding the nature of your condition and how to correct it.

If your primary complaint is neck pain, for example, if there are underlying issues contributing to this condition that are not necessarily painful or only an occasional annoyance, it is important for you and your Doctor to understand this, and include this in your correction protocol in order to achieve long lasting results and reduction in pain!
