While acute pain is a normal sensation triggered in the nervous system to alert you to possible injury and the need to take care of yourself, chronic pain is different. Chronic pain persists for weeks, months, even years. There may have been an initial mishap - sprained ankle, pulled muscle - or there may be an ongoing cause of pain, but some people even suffer chronic pain in the absence of any past injury or evidence of damage.

Chronic pain impacts the lives of millions of Americans each and every day. Pain symptoms can limit range of motion, cause loss of strength, and impact how we function in our daily lifes. Physical therapy is a vital component of chronic pain intervention. The physical therapists at Atlas are experts in chronic pain rehabiliation, offering personal, professional, compassionate and specific pain intervention techniques.In treating chronic, lingering pain we use may use therapeutic modalities but we generally utilize a  more "hands-on" approach. We activate the entire system, performing more manual techniques such as myofascial release, neurodyamics, exercises and cardiovascular work, home programs, and lifestyle changes.

We respect your pain, we realize your pain is real, and we will provide you with a specialized and unique physical therapy program. Please let us help you have freedom from your chronic pain!
