PHYSICAL THERAPY

When surgery has been the chosen course of action, physical therapy and rehabilitation are an important part of the post-surgery protocol.

Even the most minimally invasive surgeries require some level of physical therapy which helps with movement and mobility, decreases pain, restores function, and limits disability in individuals with injuries or impairments.*

Michael Friar, D.P.T., a highly skilled and educated physical therapist here at the NYSI is committed to providing effective physical therapy treatments which include proper stretching, exercise, and manual therapy. He is committed to helping patients improve their health, by familiarizing them with their own body mechanics and postural awareness, as well as offering instruction on how to perform home exercises which, over time, will contribute to their healing and help to avoid a re-injury.

We combine the use of cardio and weight machines to help target strength and endurance training as a whole for those patients who are engaged in physical therapy. One of our licensed physical therapists will evaluate and assess you before you can begin a PT program. This assessment assists doctors in determining current functioning levels, pain thresholds and physical restrictions that may affect daily activities. Once the evaluation process has been completed, Michael Friar, D.P.T., will design and develop a treatment plan specific to your individual health goals.
