Physical Therapy in Anchorage, Alaska
We provide one-on-one physical therapy, so you can get back to your active lifestyle.
If an orthopedic injury or condition is causing you pain or limiting your mobility, physical therapy can serve as an excellent nonsurgical treatment option for your needs.
The goal of physical therapy is to make movement and activity easier, reduce your pain, restore muscular function and strength, and help you return to doing what you loved doing before your injury. Physical therapy can also play a crucial role in the recovery process after surgery.
In addition to a postsurgical rehabilitation plan, your doctor may recommend physical therapy to help alleviate or eliminate symptoms and conditions such as:
- Arthritis
- Back or neck pain
- Muscle, tendon, or ligament injuries
- Overuse injuries
- Tendonitis
One-on-One Physical Therapy
