Functional Rehab Lab Physical Therapists provide the following services for treatment of orthopedic conditions
Physical Therapy
Functional Rehab Lab focuses on restoring movement, strength, and function in individuals with musculoskeletal injuries or conditions. They help patients recover from injuries, surgeries, and chronic pain by using manual therapy, therapeutic exercise, modalities, and movement retraining.
Pain Management
Use manual therapy (soft tissue mobilization, joint mobilization).
Apply modalities such as heat, ice, ultrasound, or electrical stimulation (TENS, NMES).
Provide education on pain neuroscience and self-management strategies.

Strengthening & Conditioning
Design progressive resistance training programs for muscle recovery.
Improve endurance, stability, and mobility for injury prevention.

Joint & Postural Alignment
Correct postural imbalances and faulty movement patterns.
Use joint mobilization techniques to restore mobility.
Train core stability and body mechanics for long-term function.

Train core stability and body mechanics for long-term function.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation
Guide recovery after joint replacements (hip, knee, shoulder, etc.).
Restore strength and mobility following ACL repair, rotator cuff repair, spinal surgery, etc.
Implement early-stage mobility work to prevent stiffness and complications.
