What types of muscle strains can physical therapy treat?

We treat strains in the back, neck, shoulder, hip, hamstring, quadriceps, calf, and other major muscle groups, whether from sports, work, or daily activities.

How does physical therapy help with a muscle strain?

PT reduces pain and swelling, restores flexibility, and uses targeted strengthening to support healing. We also address movement patterns to prevent re-injury.

How long does it take to recover from a muscle strain?

Mild strains may heal within a few weeks, while more severe strains can take several months. Your therapist will create a plan tailored to your injury and activity goals.
