Therapists work to make patients stronger, relieve their pain, and help them regain function so that they can resume activities of daily living such as walking, dressing or bathing. Physical Therapists strive to keep their patients healthy and safe.

In the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic, The Jackson Clinics aims to continue to provide physical therapy (PT) services to all of our patients as we realize the importance of continued rehab. We continue to take all precautions and follow CDC guidelines to keep our locations as safe as possible for our patients. If you feel, however, that you do not want to come into the clinic to complete your usual PT visits, we have created a Telehealth/Virtual PT visit option that is both simple and effective.

Our skilled Doctors of Physical Therapy can take you through your normal physical therapy session via telehealth/video chat and provide you with many of the same skilled services that would be provided in the clinic.

People who cannot tolerate traditional exercise programs find the water to be the perfect medium for exercise. It promotes pain relief due to the buoyancy property of water that provides support for your joints. It decreases weight bearing so that compression of the joints is minimized. The therapeutic benefits of water include the ability to perform functional movements that may otherwise be inhibited on land such as walking and squatting. The water provides support and therefore patients experience a reduced fear of falling and greater mobility.

Aquatic therapy promotes increased venous return and assists in improving circulation which aids in decreasing swelling and increasing range of motion. Participating in therapy in the water allows patients to work on balance training and postural awareness while strengthening weak muscles and improving overall endurance. With all of these benefits, it is no wonder that our aquatic programs are especially popular.

Physical Therapy is an integral part of breast cancer rehabilitation. Those undergoing treatments for breast cancer often face surgery. Physical therapists can work with women to alleviate symptoms caused by surgical intervention or medical treatment for cancer.

At The Jackson Clinics, our goal is to assist you through the course of cancer treatment and help you return to your regular activities. Current breast cancer treatment may include chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and endocrine therapies. Some treatments may lead to physical or functional impairments which can be amenable with rehabilitation. In the past, many of these impairments, which may include pain, fatigue, lymphedema, weakness, loss of mobility, or numbness and tingling, have gone untreated.

Physical Therapy is an integral part of injury prevention, rehabilitation, and overall health and wellness in strength training & functional fitness. Physical Therapists can help athletes reduce pain, improve strength, mobility, and flexibility.

The Jackson Clinics – Physical Therapy provides individualized evaluation and treatment for strength training athletes that have pain/movement dysfunction for the foundational movements.

Your body is a complex mechanical system. To prevent mechanical breakdown with common activities like standing, walking and running, the joints and muscles of your legs and feet need good alignment, strength and endurance. Our therapists are trained to assess your mechanical system using a state-of-the-art biomechanical movement evaluation. Based on this analysis, they will prescribe stretches, exercises, and in some cases, insoles or custom orthotics for your feet. Your orthotics will be molded directly to your foot, and your therapist will prescribe alterations to maximize your pain relief and performance when you wear them.

Trigger Point Dry Needling uses small, thin needles to stimulate underlying myofascial trigger points, muscular and connective tissues for the management of many orthopedic conditions, both acute and chronic. By inserting a needle into the dysfunctional tissue, it often leads to a contraction of the muscle which then stimulates a relaxation. This leads to a reduction of pain, improvements in flexibility and a restoration of normalized movement when combined with corrective exercises.

WHAT TYPE OF PROBLEMS CAN BE TREATED? Muscle dysfunction can be the primary or secondary contributing factor to many neuromusculoskeletal conditions.

The Jackson Clinics therapists provide pediatric services for orthopedic, neurological, or developmental conditions on an outpatient basis. Ages can vary from birth to school-aged children.
