Teletherapy is equally as effective as in-person visits for:
Pre-Surgical Conditioning & Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Our pre-surgical program focuses on:
- Mentally prepare for surgery
- Reduce pain and inflammation
- Restore range of motion
- Improve muscular control of injured joints
- Normalize movement patterns before surgery
- Improve overall well-being and fitness
- Gain a good understanding of post-surgical exercises
Our post-surgical recovery focuses on:
- Reduced swelling
- Regaining range of motion
- Regaining lost strength
- Increased endurance
- Returning to daily activities
Cardiovascular Event Rehabilitation & Recovery
- Stable angina
- Heart attack
- PTCA/stent placement
- Heart bypass surgery
- TAVR/valve surgery
- Heart transplant
- Post-Stroke care
- PAD Management
- DVT Prevention
- Other acute and chronic heart and vascular conditions

& Pain
- Sprains/strains
- Arthritis
- Back pain
- Neck pain
- Shoulder pain
- Elbow pain
- Wrist/hand pain
- Hip pain
- Knee pain
- Ankle pain

Neurologic
Conditions

Disease Management & Preventative Care
- Diabetes – exercise is a great way to assist in insulin sensitivity
- COPD (and other pulmonary conditions)
- Obesity & Weight management
- CHF/Heart Disease/Hypertension
- Medication management (within scope of PT but often not utilized!)
- Exercise-driven chronic pain management
- Wound management via patient repositioning & exercise to facilitate healthy blood flow
Maintenance
Therapy
- If you have been discharged by your primary therapy provider, or reached the maximium rehabilitative potential with authorized visits, teletherapy is a way to prevent a decline and keep-up with your routine.
Post-Hospitalization & Generalized Weakness
Teletherapy needs supplemented in-person visits for:
Certain Orthopedic
Issues
Certain orthopedic conditions require joint mobilizations/manual therapy, such as:
- Frozen shoulder
- Knee replacement
- Trigger point therapy
- Dry Needling
- Lumbar/cervical traction
High Fall-Risk
Patients
It may not be safe to conduct all exercises without someone in-person supervising/spotting patient for safety.
Transfer-Dependent
Patients
- Patients that require physical transfers and max assists may require in-person therapy.
Certain Pulmonary
Conditions
Select pulmonary conditions may require in-person postural drainage and respiratory therapy.
Certain Vestibular
Issues
Vestibular issues such as Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo (BPPV) may require in-person maneuvering for canalith repositioning.
Certain Caregiver Training Protocols
- Certain caregivers may need an in-person session with a clinician to learn proper body mechanics for assisting the patient, followed by virtual follow-up visits for continued support and assessment.
