Physical Therapy for Amputees

The loss of a limb can be a traumatic experience, affecting an individual both emotionally and physically. Working with a specialized physical therapist can ease the transition to a new way of living, and provide support at every step. We do this by working with each patient individually and tailoring care to their specific needs. Our experts in physical therapy provide assessment and treatment of the whole person for functional restoration, prosthetic use, and pain management. We work as a team to make sure the best outcomes are reached for the patient as they learn to adapt to life with a prosthesis. 

Amputee Rehabilitation Services May Include:

  • Adaptive Sports
  • Balance & Coordination
  • Collaboration with CPOs (prosthetic fit, inspection, discussion)
  • Gait
  • Education on general health
  • Home Exercise Programs (Tailored to patient, using videos)

  • Pre-prosthetic care
  • Range of Motion
  • Return to Sport/Work
  • Selective Functional Movement Assessment

We look forward to being a part of your healthcare team.
