Here at Park City Physical Therapy we have been restoring function to shoulders for years for our patients in Bridgeport and Fairfield, CT. The shoulder joint is one of the most important joints in the human body, but also one of the most susceptible to injury. Whether you want to get back on the tennis court, or extend your sports career, we have the orthopedic and sports medicine rehabilitation experts you need.
We take great pride in the trained professionals within our orthopedic and sports medicine rehabilitation programs. We specialize in caring for post-operative joints, injuries caused by sports or other activities, as well as auto accidents and amputations. We work with all types of injuries from basic sprains and strains, to more complex rehabilitation involving ACL or rotator cuff repairs. Our therapists aspire to restore the patient's endurance, range of motion, and strength after surgery or injury.
Using targeted workouts, a patient's weaknesses can be alleviated or eliminated. Our Bridgeport therapists are trained to be knowledgeable on surgical procedures, which allows them to be well versed on the very best treatment for each individual's specific needs.
Rehabilitation may include:
Targeted stretching exercises allows the muscles to release tension around the affected area and increasing blood flow to the injury. Increased blood flow to an injury promotes faster healing. Stretching also improves range of motion.
Strengthening exercises can be achieved by adding on carefully selected weights to strengthen surrounding muscles and improve endurance.
Treatments designed to decrease swelling and increase circulation aid in faster healing.
