Physical Therapy
Physical therapy at Steve Kravitz Physical Therapy combines evidence-based techniques with manual therapies to address mobility issues, chronic pain, and post-injury recovery. Our approach targets musculoskeletal and neurological conditions through customized exercise programs and hands-on treatments. Patients benefit from individualized care plans designed to restore function and enhance quality of life.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy uses gentle touch to release tensions in the central nervous system, alleviating pain and improving mobility. This osteopathic-based method addresses headaches, TMJ dysfunction, and chronic stress-related conditions. Patients experience deep relaxation and long-term relief through this non-invasive, holistic approach.
Myofascial Release
Myofascial release targets connective tissue restrictions to reduce pain and restore natural movement. This technique benefits patients with chronic back pain, postural imbalances, and repetitive strain injuries. By addressing fascial tightness, the therapy enhances flexibility and promotes lasting musculoskeletal health.
Dry Needling
Dry needling employs thin needles to relieve muscle and joint pain caused by trigger points and inflammation. Effective for neck pain, sports injuries, and chronic conditions, this therapy accelerates recovery by improving blood flow and reducing tissue tension. Patients report rapid pain relief and improved mobility after sessions.
Pediatric Physical Therapy
Pediatric physical therapy addresses developmental and musculoskeletal challenges in children using gentle, non-invasive techniques. The service supports infants to teens with conditions ranging from congenital disorders to sports injuries. Tailored interventions focus on enhancing motor skills, strength, and functional independence in a child-friendly environment.
