At Advance Physical Therapy we use Manual Therapies to support your Postural Restoration physical therapy program. The use of Manual Therapies timed appropriately in a treatment program can help greatly to alleviate acute pain, reset the nervous system particularly in cases of chronic pain and promote movement capacity required for long term postural improvement and function. Manual therapies include hands-on techniques like: Postural Restoration Specific Manual Techniques, Counterstrain and Positional Release, Dry Needling, Kinesiotaping, Joint and Soft Tissue Mobilization, Myofascial, Connective Tissue and Lymphatic Massage. Many of our therapists possess advanced training and certification in several Manual Therapies.
Testimonial
Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Hip Pain. . .
— Melanie Aquilino Chapel Hill, NCAfter over 25 years of chronic neck, back and hip pain, I had not considered the possibility that there was a therapeutic course left that could address any of these issues. My quality of life had been significantly altered as my symptoms worsened through the years. I had been to both traditional and non- traditional practitioners in many cities that could only provide a temporary fix – and not to all aspects simultaneously.
Through Postural Restoration I have truly received a “lifeline”. As a result of the very personalized program designed to address my specific and changing needs, I have achieved a level of physical comfort and stability that I couldn’t have imagined was possible. Through this therapy I have been taught an awareness of what has created the problems, why a particular approach should be taken and how to be an active participant in resolving my pain. Through Advance Physical Therapy and Holistic Health, I have been provided with pain resolution, maintenance of issues and a program for strengthening and gaining back the active lifestyle I had.
I am so thankful that I am now able to resume activities which I would not have considered undertaking just a short time ago. I cannot speak highly enough about the results I have achieved, and am very grateful for, through Postural Restoration.
