Our Evidence-Based Treatment Modalities
1. Functional Movement Restoration
Our certified rehabilitation specialists utilize functional capacity evaluation and functional capacity evaluation to design progressive exercise protocols targeting:
- Joint position sense restoration: Restoring joint position sense after connective tissue damage
- Motor control exercises: Retraining optimal movement that maintain symptoms
- Progressive resistance training: Progressive resistance training to restore pre-injury strength levels
- Locomotion optimization: Correcting movement faults contributing to leg and foot problems
Clinical outcome: 87% of patients demonstrate measurable improvement in daily activity performance within 4-6 weeks (based on standardized assessment tools).
2. Soft Tissue Mobilization
Board-certified massage therapists perform precision hands-on treatment to address:
- Trigger point deactivation: Eliminating radiating discomfort from tissue restrictions
- Tissue glide restoration: Enhancing fascial mobility and reducing compensatory strain
- Lymphatic drainage: Accelerating post-traumatic edema resolution post-accident
- Scar tissue remodeling: Maintaining tissue pliability after acute injury
Treatment frequency: Initial phase requires 2-3 sessions weekly, transitioning to maintenance care as symptoms improve.
3. Joint Mobilization Treatment
Our chiropractic physicians utilize hands-on manipulation, table-facilitated therapy, and device-aided mobilization to restore:
- Segmental arrangement: Restoring proper vertebral position causing radicular symptoms
- Spinal segment mobility: Enhancing spinal flexibility in hypomobile spinal regions
- Biomechanical equilibrium: Treating shoulder protraction and alignment deficiencies
- Disc health: Promoting nutrient exchange and decreasing pressure loads
Safety profile: Comprehensive examination precedes treatment to ensure treatment safety.
4. Complementary Therapeutic Interventions
- Deep tissue ultrasound therapy: Controlled heat application to improve elastic properties and promote soft tissue repair
- Neuromuscular electrical stimulation: Reducing acute muscle spasm and enhancing blood flow
- Ice treatment regimens: Controlling swelling while limiting pharmaceutical reliance
- Kinesiology taping: Enhancing body awareness and supporting injured tissues during movement-based activities
- Thermotherapy: Enhancing circulation before rehabilitation activities

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a referral to be seen?
No. Florida allows direct access to these conservative care services without medical prescription. However, if you're submitting claims, verify your plan's requirements.
When should I schedule my first appointment after injury?
Schedule as soon as possible. Postponing care risks long-term complications. PIP benefits require two-week treatment initiation of an auto accident to maintain PIP benefits.
Will I need diagnostic imaging?
We request scans based on examination findings based on clinical assessment results, mechanism of injury, or lack of expected progress. We maintain collaborative partnerships with regional radiology providers for expedited scheduling.
How many sessions will I need?
Recent trauma usually needs two to three months of therapeutic intervention. Complex cases involving disc herniation or multi-level involvement may require up to four months. Chronic pain conditions require longer treatment duration due to nervous system adaptations.
Can I transfer from another provider?
