Our Proven 4-Phase Recovery Program

The first step in your recovery is addressing pain and inflammation. Our therapists use evidence-based techniques, including manual therapy, therapeutic modalities, and targeted exercises, to reduce discomfort and restore your confidence in movement. This phase is all about providing relief and creating a foundation for progress.

Once your pain is under control, the Prime phase focuses on preparing your body for the next stages of recovery. We work with you to improve range of motion, build strength, and enhance flexibility. By priming your body, we set the stage for optimal performance and prevent setbacks.

During the Perform phase, the goal is to restore your functional abilities and help you reclaim the activities that matter most to you. Whether you’re aiming to return to work, daily life, or athletic pursuits, we tailor exercises and therapies to meet your specific needs. This is where you truly see the results of your hard work.

Recovery doesn’t stop when treatment ends. In the Prevent phase, we focus on equipping you with the tools to maintain your progress and reduce the risk of future injuries. From personalized exercise plans to lifestyle recommendations, this phase empowers you to enjoy long-term health and wellness.
