Physiotherapy Services
Physiotherapy is the practice of treating disease, injury, or deformity through physical methods such as massage, corrective exercise, and other techniques. A key element of physiotherapy is that it takes a holistic approach to wellness and recovery, focusing on the whole person, including general lifestyle and health. Evolution Physical Therapy offers various physiotherapy services to treat patients with all manner of injuries and conditions and help them achieve optimal recovery.
How We Approach Physiotherapy
Our physical therapy team utilizes unique methods of manual therapy, blood flow restriction therapy, instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization, and other techniques to elevate the diagnosis and treatment of injury and help patients maintain a healthy lifestyle. We work diligently to create a customized treatment plan best suited to your specific needs and goals. In addition, we offer massage, pilates, and distinguished circuit classes taught by our therapists to incorporate with physical therapy treatment and deliver the most effective results possible.
Common Physiotherapy Services
Our physiotherapy services at Evolution use several hands-on techniques and are designed to manipulate, mobilize, and massage the tissues in the body. Below, explore our full range of physiotherapy services available for patients of all ages and activity levels!
Alter G
The Alter G-Trainer is an anti-gravity treadmill that works by reducing your effective body weight during exercise. At Evolution Physical Therapy, we use the Alter G to help patients run without pain, train through injuries, and supercharge their workouts.
Assisted Stretching Session
Our physical therapists at Evolution perform assisted stretching sessions to target specific areas and ensure you are getting the proper range of motion that your body needs. Assisted stretching is a directed approach to improving the overall health of your joints and muscles.
Blood Flow Restriction Therapy
At Evolution Physical Therapy, we offer blood flow restriction therapy or training (BFRT) to help patients make greater strength gains in their arms and legs while lifting lighter loads.
Deep Tissue/Sports Massage
At Evolution, a deep tissue/sports massage is used to treat musculoskeletal issues and is often recommended for individuals suffering from muscle pain, soreness, or fatigue. This technique is great for rehab and recovery from sports-related injuries.

Functional dry needling (FDN) is a technique used by our team at Evolution Physical Therapy to treat myofascial pain, which is a chronic condition affecting the musculoskeletal system.
Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization
Evolution Physical Therapy utilizes Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) to locate and treat patients with soft tissue dysfunction effectively.
Joint Mobilization & Manipulation
Our physical therapy team uses joint mobilization and manipulation as part of your overall treatment. The goal of these manual techniques is to improve the mobility and function of your soft tissues, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments.
LSVT BIG for Parkinson’s
LSVT BIG is used by our physical therapists to train people with Parkinson's disease to use their body more normally, regardless of the stage or severity of their condition. This treatment produces significant improvements for even those facing considerable physical difficulties.
