Rehabilitation Services

At Red Bluff Physical Therapy we pride ourselves in providing top-notch orthopedic rehabilitation services for patients of all ages.

Rehabilitation includes a variety of common physical therapy techniques and treatments that are specifically designed to address injuries sustained by the structures of the musculoskeletal system: bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and cartilage.

Common techniques

• Hot/Cold packs can prepare muscles for exercise and manipulation or reduce inflammation to make movement less painful.

• Electrical stimulation activates nerves in damaged tissues to help develop strength and stability.

• Ultrasound generates sound waves that are transferred to a specific part of the body using a probe. The sound waves travel deep into tissue creating gentle heat.

• Medical massage is an outcome-based massage that applies specific treatments targeted to physical therapy to help muscles function.

• Strength and stability exercises are used to help the body reestablish the proper function of the musculoskeletal tissues.

• Stretching tight muscles and joints can help relieve pain and get patients back to their previous range of motion

Goal of Red Bluff Physical Therapy

The goal of Red Bluff Physical Therapy’s rehabilitation programs is to treat, rehabilitate, recondition, and return the patient to a physically satisfying lifestyle that they previously enjoyed before suffering an injury. Our team emphasizes the importance of early injury recognition, as well as identifying when a previous injury may be acting up and reoccurring.
