General Info:

Just as the trend in medicine is for physicians to subspecialize in knees, or arm, or joint replacement, the exact same thing is happening in the area of physical therapy. Thats good news for patients. Just as the first step for a physician is to receive his MD degree, the first step for a physical therapist is to become a licensed physical therapist. Most orthopedic centers and therapy clinics will have licensed physical therapists who split their time among patients with knee pain, hip problems, shoulder pain, hand problems, ankle problems and foot problems. Experts have found, however, that back and neck problems can be stubborn to treat and may not respond to general techniques learned in therapy school. Worse, what often happens is that when generalized therapy fails to relieve symptoms, the patient has to resort to spine surgery. Consequently, those therapists who spend 100% of their time with spine patients learn early on that they need advanced training to help patients recover from back and neck pain nonsurgically. The better the spine training, the more often the back or neck pain sufferer will be able to recover without having to resort to spine surgery. SpineNevada physical therapy is directed by a therapist with advanced training in spine therapy, which is regarded worldwide as one of the most effective, spine-specialized therapy techniques.
