Request an AppointmentWhat Is Orthopedic Physical Therapy?
Orthopedic physical therapy focuses on the musculoskeletal system. It combines detailed movement assessment, hands-on treatment, and targeted exercise to relieve pain, restore motion, and rebuild strength after injury, surgery, or wear-and-tear conditions. It is often an effective alternative to medication, injections, or surgery.

How Orthopedic Care Works at Home
Your therapist evaluates posture, joint mobility, strength, flexibility, and movement patterns to identify the true source of your symptoms, then builds a plan that progresses from pain relief to strength and long-term prevention.
Your personalized plan may include:
- Manual therapy: Joint mobilization and soft tissue techniques.
- McKenzie Method: Mechanical assessment and self-treatment for spine pain.
- IASTM: Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization.
- Blood flow restriction training: Strength gains with lighter loads.
- Post-surgical rehabilitation: Recovery after orthopedic surgery.
The Benefits of Orthopedic Physical Therapy at Home
Recovering at home means no driving, parking, or waiting rooms when you are already uncomfortable. Your therapist sees how you sit, sleep, work, and move in your own space and can adjust your furniture setup, daily habits, and exercises to fit your real routine. That real-world approach helps results last long after your final visit. Older adults can also benefit from our in-home physical therapy for seniors, and if surgery is part of your plan, we offer pre-surgical physical therapy and post-surgical rehabilitation.

What does an orthopedic physical therapist treat?
Orthopedic physical therapists treat conditions of the muscles, bones, joints, tendons, and ligaments, including back and neck pain, arthritis, sports injuries, and post-surgical recovery.
Is orthopedic therapy effective at home?
Yes. Most orthopedic treatment uses hands-on care and exercise that can be delivered fully at home with the same results as a clinic.
Can orthopedic physical therapy help me avoid surgery?
For many back, knee, and shoulder problems, a structured program can reduce pain and restore function enough to avoid or delay surgery.
Do you treat busy professionals?
Yes. In-home sessions save commute time, and we work to schedule visits that fit around your workday.
Does Medicare cover orthopedic physical therapy?
Yes. Original Medicare Part B covers medically necessary orthopedic physical therapy, including in-home outpatient care.
How many visits will I need?
It depends on your condition and goals. Your therapist will outline a plan after your evaluation.
Do I need a referral?
You can start physical therapy without a physician’s prescription under California’s Direct Access laws. If you use Original Medicare, your physician will sign off on your plan of care, and our team coordinates that for you.
