Orthopedic Rehabilitation
What is Orthopedic Rehabilitation?
Our approach to Orthopedic Rehabilitation goes beyond addressing pain and recovering from acute injury. Our therapists prioritize assessing and treating the movement system in its entirety; allowing us to optimize movement and eliminate the root cause of the problem so the issue doesn’t return. We do not discharge our clients as soon as they are pain-free. Instead, we address any and all movement system dysfunction to prevent future injury and build a healthier tomorrow for our clients.
Conditions We Treat
Our clinicians are well-versed in treating a wide variety of orthopedic injuries in multiple body regions:
- Head

Eliminate Pain
If there is pain and/or acute injury, our first approach is always to eliminate your pain and facilitate the healing of tissues.
Restore Strength & Range of Motion
Next, we focus on restoring muscle length and strength as indicated in the affected body region.
Optimize Function
Next, we retrain optimal movement of the affected body region and improve functional strength and mobility of distant body regions that could be contributing to the issue.
Increase Load
Next, we utilize the concept of “progressive overload”, which means gradually increasing the load and demand on the musculoskeletal system to build tissue resilience. This could include increasing the degree of challenge while strength training, introducing gradually more complex movements, or initiating sport-specific exercises.
Maintain Fitness
Finally, we encourage our clients to prioritize maintaining their long-term physical health; preventing re-injury, and frequent returns to a physical therapist. Clients that need assistance in this area are encouraged to enroll in one of our Continuity Programs, to ensure they maintain the improvements made during rehabilitation. These programs offer well-rounded, total body strength and mobility programs specifically tailored to each client’s unique goals and aspirations.
What Our Clients Are Saying
Knee & leg pain has kept me from fully enjoying snow skiing over the last few years. With Dr. Loveland's treatments, exercises, & stretching, I now believe that I can ski many more years in great health.
By the way, I'm over 76 & smiling at this success! 😁
