Orthopedic Injuries
Revitalize Movement Physical Therapy Studio offers a unique experience in physical therapy with 60 minute one to one initial evaluations. This allows Dr. Apple to provide a comprehensive physical therapy evaluation that is personalized and unique to each patient.
Your specific biomechanics will be evaluated for the proper balance of mobility and stability. The goal is to establish pain free movement patterns through patient education; reinforced with appropriate therapeutic exercise, joint and soft tissue mobilizations, muscle energy techniques, taping, dynamic stretching, and inflammation reducing modalities. These movement patterns should be so well learned that they become consistent at home, work, and in recreational activities. Alignment, of the joints of the body, is essential in utilizing the muscles appropriately. In addition to treating all standard orthopedic injuries, Dr. Apple also specializes in sports and dance injury rehabilitation, the Schroth method for treatment of scoliosis and Revitalize Movement Exercises inspired by yoga, tai chi, ballet, Pilates, Feldenkrais, and the Hoffman method.
