At HealthQuest, an established multi-specialty center based in Brooklyn, New
York, we welcome patients desiring physical therapy treatment. Ours is a
facility where we combine neurology, chiropractic care, physical therapy and
rehabilitation to provide excellent care and services to our patients. We offer
relief, correction and symptomatic care with the best results. Our services are
extended to patients belonging to all age groups in the areas of Sheepshead Bay,
Manhattan Beach, Marine Park, Ocean Parkway, Borough Park, Kensington and other
nearby locations of Brooklyn.
Physical therapy is a procedure advocated for arthritis, sports injuries, body
aches and pain, recovery after surgery and stroke, walking disorders and
impaired balance. We employ the latest diagnostic procedures at our facility to
pinpoint your medical condition, so that we can adopt the correct treatment
modalities. Our physical therapy professionals help to restore your health,
mobility, balance and coordination. Patients who register with us are assured
considerable relief from debilitating pain, excellent restoration of body
functions and sizeable reduction of disability. Our physical therapy procedures
are aimed at making you a totally independent individual, capable of carrying on
with your daily activities without external help.
Using a variety of physical therapy modalities, such as heat, ice,
electrotherapy and ultrasound, we successfully provide greater healing to the
injured tissue. The use of these therapies will decrease pain, muscle spasm,
swelling and soreness, as well as, increase blood flow and nutrients to the area
of injury. Medical massage incorporated into your treatment plan, whenever
required, will relax stressed, injured and overworked muscles. The application
of manual Effleurage (stroking) and Petrissage (squeezing) to the affected area
will increase overall circulation providing a calmer, stress-free feeling.
Some of our techniques are:
-
Myofascial release is a proven technique to get rid of any problem that
obstructs easy movement. This technique is usually advised along with other
treatments for better results.
-
Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation is a method that involves
stimulation of the nerves in an effort to control pain and is guaranteed to give
patients the desired relief.
-
Traction is an excellent physical therapy procedure to lessen pain and enhance
tissue flexibility. This method improves lost or decreased sensation, reduces
pain and tingling feelings, as well as, relieves muscle spasms that cause nerve
root impingement in the lumbar and cervical spine regions.
HealthQuest is staffed by licensed physical therapists and their assistants who
advise you on health matters involving movement and function; they show you
methods to relieve pain and also give tips on preventing further injuries. To
schedule your Physical Therapy Consultation, please call us at
