The treatment of physical dysfunction or injury by the use of therapeutic exercise and the application of modalities, intended to restore or facilitate normal function or development. FVPT offers a wide range of treatments both traditional and cutting edge. Specialized programs include our TMJD (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) rehabilitation program.

Following breast cancer, individuals may have shoulder, neck, postural, back, or abdominal problems associated with surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. Our exercise programs can provide a gentle reintroduction to movement at any stage of recovery.

FVPT is the most [and only] rehab, fitness, and movement studio in our area. Our mission is to provide quality, certified instruction in a safe and supportive environment that allows everyone, from every age and every level, to enjoy the healing benefits yoga has to offer through body, mind and spirit.

The therapists at FVPT can help stop the clicking, popping and grating sounds to decrease your pain and restore your TMJ function. Our physical therapists focus on reducing the pain and discomfort of temporomandibular joint dysfunction by relaxing the tension associated with the temporomandibular joint through exercise and habit modification.

How well and how quickly patients completely recover from their injuries often depends on how well they follow their post-rehab exercise programs at home. These can be very demanding, especially for those who did not regularly exercise before therapy. FVPT has designed a program where patients can return to FVPT, use the equipment, and consult with therapists after completion of therapy.

Laser therapy, also known as phototherapy and low level laser therapy, involves the application of low power coherent light to injuries and lesions to stimulate healing and reduce pain. It is used to increase the speed, quality and strength of tissue repair, resolve inflammation and give pain relief. Laser therapy is used both in rehabilitation and injury prevention programs.
