What is Holistic Physical Therapy?

Holistic physical therapy is a comprehensive way of practicing physical therapy. Physical therapy is a profession that assists and facilitates individuals with physical and developmental disabilities to promote optimal function in life. Physical therapists work to identify, prevent, improve, and restructure movement dysfunction in people who have injury, disease or inherited disorders. Physical therapists base their examinations, diagnoses and interventions on theory related to movement and behavior.

Holistic physical therapy treats the mind and the body. Rather than treating the conditions as dissected parts, the body is treated as a complete system - very much like the concepts of Oriental Medicine.

At Health in Motion, we treat patients with deficits in range of motion, strength, endurance, and function due to musculoskeletal, cardiovascular or neurological involvement.
