About IMC Physical Therapy

The path to a painfree life can seem complicated, but that's only if the achey customer in question doesn't have directions to IMC Physical Therapy. The clinic's staff is chock full of osteopaths, certified acupuncturists, chiropractors, licensed massage therapists, and (of course) physical therapists. They work together with the goal of not just relieving discomfort, but rooting out the source of that pain. Read on to learn more about some of the techniques they might apply:

• Osteopathic manipulation: Different from massage or chiropractic practices, the doctor or assistant will use a series of hand movements and manipulations to move muscles and joints. They use their findings to diagnose ailments and even treat them.
• Massage therapy: Relaxing patients as well as improving their circulation, the goal is to get blood flowing enough to alleviate pain from sore muscles and anxious minds.
• Acupuncture: Fine needles are inserted into the skin along specific points or meridians in order to balance the body and relieve lifelong discomfort.
