Physical Therapy

Step Up to Your Best Health

Our Physical Therapists focus on creating an individualized program for every patient, so they can successfully regain their optimum level of independence and quality of life.

Does pain prevent you from doing the things you love?

Chronic health conditions can be disabling and decrease your quality of life over time. Here’s the good news: You can prevent and manage chronic health conditions with an individualized physical therapy program at Lung & Wellness Centers of Western Pennsylvania.

Our Physical Therapists are trained in advanced rehabilitation methods and therapy techniques to help you achieve the most productive and independent lifestyle possible.

When we create your therapy plan, we focus on:

Strength & endurance
Balance & stability
Increased joint mobility

Better breathing
Pain management
Fall prevention

In most cases, you don’t need a physician referral to start a physical therapy program, so don’t hesitate to ask us about it!

Are you recovering from a heart attack or cardiac procedure?

cardiac rehab

Any type of cardiac event or procedure affects your strength. Your heart’s been through something – either surgery or a procedure – and it needs some TLC to get back to its best functionality.

Working with your surgeon or other doctors, our therapists will customize a program to include exercises that rebuild your muscle strength, endurance, and lung capacity.  Our physical therapists and pulmonary therapists team up to ensure you’re making strides toward regaining your best health.

Often, our patients lower their blood pressure and improve vitals like cholesterol levels. By increasing heart function and boosting overall health, our patients are generally able to get back to their daily lives and enjoy their usual activities.

Our Lung & Wellness Center therapists also provide maintenance/follow up programs that empower our patients to continue to improve after reaching their initial goals.

Do you struggle with vertigo or have balance problems?

Our therapists can help restore balance to your world. Whether you’re chronically just a little off balance or experiencing acute symptoms like a full-blown episode of vertigo, the physical therapists at Lung & Wellness Center can work with you to restore that important sense of stability.

Using both manual-positioning techniques and/or vestibular and balance physical therapy exercises, you’ll find your symptoms quickly alleviated.

How are we different?

Sure, we do post-surgical rehabilitation and treat injuries just like any other physical therapy facility. What makes us different from most physical therapy clinics is that we also offer ongoing care for a wide range of chronic conditions.

Together with your doctors, we’ll develop a customized plan for your sessions at Lung & Wellness Centers. When you’re ready, we’ll transition you to an ongoing maintenance program to preserve the benefits you received from treatment in our physical therapy clinic. This could be a combination of at-home exercises and ongoing visits.
