PHYSICAL THERAPY

Part of a successful recuperation and rehabilitation is comprehensive physical therapy. It is important to understand that surgeries alone, even the most minimally invasive surgeries, cannot provide complete rehabilitation. Physical therapy is necessary to contribute to your movement and mobility, to decreased pain, restored function, and will help to limit disability in individuals with injuries or impairments. * Physical therapy treatments are especially important to those individuals that have lifestyles where strain to their neck and back are a part of their everyday routine. If you’ve experienced a neck or back injury, then reach out to the dedicated team of back specialists here at the NYSI.

New York Spine Institute takes tremendous pride in our licensed physical therapist, Michael Friar, D.P.T., who is committed to providing patients with the best all round physical therapy treatment options. As part of your physical therapy plan you will receive instructions on appropriate stretching, exercise, and manual therapy. It is important to educate all our Centereach patients and those in many of the adjacent towns on body mechanics, postural awareness, and exercises that can be done at home to aid in their rehabilitation. Physical therapy and proper education and instructions help to not only improve health but help to prevent reinjury as well.

Here at the NYSI we combine cardio and weight machines to target strength and endurance training for patients undergoing physical therapy. Prior to the startup of a physical therapy program however, patients must be evaluated by a licensed physical therapist who will determine present functioning levels, pain thresholds and physical restrictions that currently affect daily activities. Michael Friar, upon completion of your evaluation will determine the best treatment options for you and will set practical goals for you to achieve.
