Have you been to PT before? If so, I hope it was a positive experience, however the majority of the clients we see have had poor experiences. We’ve heard things such as
“the PT didn’t even watch me run”
“They gave me some really basic exercises and just told me to work on them at home”
“I saw the PT for like 2 minutes and then worked with someone who followed a sheet of paper for the next 30”
Unfortunately, these scenarios are all too common and that’s why I started Functional Phyzio.
Working in a clinic where I was forced to see multiple patients an hour, I knew I wasn’t giving the highest quality care. I mean it’s impossible when you’re asked to be in two places at once!
That’s why at Functional Phyzio we spend a full our, 1 on 1 with each client, giving them the most personalized experience.
Our Durham Physical Therapist are highly trained in strength & conditioning in addition to physical therapy.
If you’re reading this, chances are you’re an active individual who is limited by some type of pain or mobility issue. You also likely know the value of strength training and especially having proper form with your training.
That’s why so many people now are seeking out clinics where they can get a hybrid of a personal trainer and physical therapist. We are you’re one stop shop for getting out of pain and back to training while avoiding future injury!
Our personalized treatment plans create resiliency to keep you doing the activities and workouts you love for life!
How our Durham physical therapists can help you:
Get out of pain
When you’re in pain, your movement changes. Your body compensates which usually leads to more pain and injury. We utilize a number of techniques to get you out of pain including dry needling, cupping, soft tissue mobilization & massage and joint manipulations.
What we DON’T do is sit you in the corner with outdated technology like ultrasound (and then bill you extra for it like the insurance clinic down the road will).
Identify your limitations & help you train around them
Our initial evaluation starts with an in-depth movement assessment to identify the root cause of your pain. Our physical therapists can also help you modify your training in the short term to work around your limitations so you can continue to be active. We won’t tell you to simply just stop running, lifting, biking or exercising.
The spotter you’ve always wanted
Ever felt like you just needed someone to check your form & give you a few tips on how to improve? What if this person had a true understanding of your body so those tips were even more personalized? Well our physical therapists are the best spotters in Durham! We know lifting, running, squatting, core training and body mechanics and can help you do all of these things in a way that’s right for you!
Dial it back when needed
One of the best things about working with a hybrid physical therapist & strength coach is getting the best of both worlds. When you are seeing a PT on a regular basis you get exactly what you need. Feeling good? Awesome! Let’s train and build strength. Feeling achy? Let’s get you feeling good with hands on work so you can get back out there tomorrow!
Make the impossible, possible
Do you want to be able to do the same activities at 75 as you did at 50? It may seem crazy, but with a solid foundation of movement, a coach in your corner & a bundle of knowledge it’s totally possible!
Not to mention our physical therapists can also help you with the basics of nutrition, stress management & sleep which are essential to maintaining good health!
Going through physical therapy and then continuing to work with the same provider for a performance & maintenance plans produces results like non other!
