"To build lifelong relationships by empowering people to make better health and wellness decisions and providing the ultimate healing experience through clinical expertise in a warm uplifting environment."
DSMC’s physical therapy focuses on functional movement in the evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. The comprehensive evaluation detects pain generators (“the victims”) and dysfunctions in movement within the kinetic chain including range of motion, strength, stability and biomechanics (“the culprits”). The treatment is geared toward treating the victims while removing the culprits.
This typically begins with attaining central stability to foster peripheral movement, strength and power. Various manual physical therapy techniques are utilized to remove mechanical blocks (joint, muscular, neuromuscular) that impede the attainment of functional movement. As motion is gained, it is retained through proper neuromuscular activation, re-education and patterning. Those patterns are then systematically integrated into the biomechanics of daily functional movements, making “life your exercise”.
Becoming a more effective and efficient mover in life works to sustain therapeutic gains and balance the mechanical stress on the body. The same principles and pathways are applied in our systematic and progressive return to sport programs. Our approach restores and maximizes human function to ultimately improve quality of life and return them to their health and wellness activities.
