We help with non-specific pain…or pain that lingers after an injury should have healed.
When pain is not serious enough for pain management, not well-served by conventional physical therapy, or only temporarily improved by conventional massage therapy…we can help.
Terry Kahn has expertise at the intersection of physical therapy and massage therapy. She searches out and clears the trigger points, fascial restrictions, adhesions, and nerve entrapments that typically cause this type of pain, using skilled manual therapy. By clearing the pain at its source, we get lasting results.
Chronic pain and arthritis can require a different approach.
Some types of pain cannot be cleared by manual therapy. In many cases, however, skilled manual therapy can be a valuable adjunct to usual care by addressing the soft tissue component of pain. And in some cases, such as atypical sites of arthritis, investigation may reveal that body mechanics and habitual postures are a contributing factor.
As a physical therapist, Terry Kahn is experienced in identifying perpetuating factors, explaining them in layman's terms, and teaching the patient better ways of using their bodies for less provocation of symptoms.The result:the patient has more good days.
