Treatment Approach

Individualized programs to meet your needs.

With each program, traditional therapeutic techniques are utilized. However, we also believe in a more functional approach when developing a rehabilitation program. In order to help you reach your goals, we develop a plan to exercise all 3 planes of the body, in the frontal, sagittal, and transverse planes.


We also feel that it is important to integrate core strengthening exercises, thus offering support to your spine, and upper and lower extremities. We will help you to understand the reasons behind the exercises, and how they will help you achieve your goals. Contact Ken Kurtz & Associates Physical Therapy today to find out more about these treatments and the solutions we can provide for you.
