Physical Therapy
Union Physical Therapy offers comprehensive rehabilitation services tailored to individual needs. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy use evidence-based techniques like manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, and advanced diagnostics to treat musculoskeletal conditions. We specialize in restoring mobility, reducing pain, and preventing future injuries through personalized care plans designed for active lifestyles.
ACL Rehab
Our specialized ACL rehabilitation program uses criteria-based progression and advanced testing for athlete-centered recovery. We focus on restoring strength, stability, and confidence after surgery through targeted exercises, force plate analysis, and sport-specific training to ensure safe return to activity with reduced re-injury risk.
Diagnostic Ultrasound
We utilize musculoskeletal ultrasound for real-time injury diagnosis, allowing precise visualization of soft tissues. This technology enables accurate assessment of tendon, muscle, and ligament conditions, guiding effective treatment plans without radiation exposure. Immediate results facilitate faster recovery for active individuals.
Shockwave Therapy
Extracorporeal Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) accelerates healing for chronic tendon pain by stimulating blood flow and tissue regeneration. This non-invasive treatment effectively addresses conditions like plantar fasciitis and rotator cuff tendinopathy, offering lasting relief when traditional methods fail, particularly for athletes and active patients.
BFR Training
Blood Flow Restriction (BFR) Training safely builds muscle strength using low-load exercises with controlled blood flow restriction. Ideal for post-surgical recovery, this technique mimics high-intensity training benefits without joint stress, accelerating rehabilitation for ACL repairs, rotator cuff injuries, and other musculoskeletal conditions.
