All of our therapists and technicians are highly trained, experienced, and motivated in the pursuit of continued learning. Our ultimate goal is to enhance the quality of life for each patient through skill, caring, patience, and enthusiam.
Physical therapy treats a broad spectrum of disability due to both injury and disease. The goals of treatment generally focus on decreasing pain and inflammation to promote the healing of damaged tissue, increasing range of motion and muscle strength. Most importantly, returning the patient to their maximum level of function and independence.
The center’s physical therapists work with a wide range of clients, from a newborn to a child with cerebral palsy, to one of Key West's top athletes with a rotator cuff or knee injury or an elderly person who recently suffered a stroke or a broken hip.
Physical therapy at our center is generally medically prescribed and provides a unique and vital component to the overall treatment, health and well-being of the client. With the a state-of-the-art Biodex System 3 Pro, we provide the most advanced multi-joint strength testing and exercising system available anywhere in the Keys.
