At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy and Sports Performance in Omaha, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the latest research-based and cutting edge treatment programs and interventions for Physical Therapy. We offer a myriad of services with the interest in providing you with the best option for optimal recovery. We will prepare you for injury prevention from your first appointment. We work with active populations and high level athletes alike and we treat everyone according to needs and goals.
Therapeutic Corrective Exercise
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy and Sports Performance in Omaha, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the latest research-based and cutting edge treatment programs and interventions for Physical Therapy. The Doctors of Physical Therapy at CORE are trained in corrective exercises to improve symmetry of movement and efficiency of movement. This includes function movement patterns, gait and running gait analysis, sports specific technique work, and sports training/performance.
Manual Therapy and Mobilizations
At CORE Physical Therapy, Manual Therapy and Mobilization can be utilized as joint mobility work, capsular stretching, spinal mobilizations and manual stretching. Combined with soft tissue work, this will greatly increase range of motion. All of our professional doctors are trained in manual therapy techniques for the spine, neck, shoulder, soft tissue, and more!
Muscle Energy Technique
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy in Omaha, we specialize in using Muscle Energy Technique (MET) as a gentle way to re-align the spinal segments, pelvis and create symmetry in the body. Contract relax stretching is both gentle and effective to increase range of motion and correct pelvic symmetries. This technique relies on autogenic and reciprocal inhibition to produce muscle relaxation and elongate muscle tissue.
Instrument Assisted/Graston Style Soft Tissue Mobility
Physical Therapy modalities such as Therapeutic Ultrasound, Electrical stimulation, Russian stimulation, Trigger point dry needling, manual mobilization and manipulation, Graston Technique and corrective exercise are among the most popular interventions.
Through IASTM and Graston, we can break up scar tissue, improve tissue extensibility, and return symmetrical motion in just one or two sessions. Dry needling can extend that tissue change even longer. Adding in corrective exercise will keep the tissue irritation from coming back after the initial injury is remedied.
Modalities
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy in Omaha, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the latest research-based and cutting edge treatment programs and interventions for Physical Therapy.
Therapeutic Ultrasound, Electrical stimulation, Trigger point dry needling, manual mobilization and manipulation, MET, Graston Technique and corrective exercise are among the most popular interventions.
Manual Traction
Long axis cervical and lumbar traction performed manually will allow for a specialized and multi planer motion to facilitate faster recovery.
Manual versions of traction are superior to traction machines as they can vary the angle of pull depending on the site of impingement and restriction. Also manual traction is better regulated with more precision traction forces with various angles that can be achieved to a much greater degree than with a mechanical system.
Trigger Point Dry Needling
Trigger Point Dry needling allows a Doctor of Physical Therapy to release muscular tension from the inside. Using this technique with traditional rehabilitation decreases average recovery time by more than 30-40%.
Trigger Point Dry Needling when performed correctly will allow a muscle to reach baseline within a few visits, so that we can efficiently correct the root of the issue that plagues the patients.
At CORE Physical Therapy in Omaha, we have undergone a full array of post doctoral education and practice trigger point dry needling under a post graduate certification.
Proprioceptive and Balance Training
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy in Omaha Nebraska, we utilize special techniques and training for balance, coordination, feedback and surface transition. This increases body control, athleticism, coordination and speed all while decreasing injury risk. Having exceptional balance often separates great athletes from the good athletes and we recognize the value for our athletes.
Training with reaction drills that are sports specific along with various options of eyes closed training are vital for a complete recovery and complete athletes.
Exercise Prescription
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy in Omaha, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the latest research-based and cutting edge treatment programs and interventions for Physical Therapy. We incorporate physical therapy exercises/corrective and rehab exercises to integrate into your strengthening program. We also build into, and can create, programs from scratch for athletes to achieve the athletic performance they desire.
We can bridge the gap from rehab to sports performance by combining both disciplines into treatment.
Rock Tape
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy in Omaha, we are trained in ROCK TAPE taping techniques for proprioceptive training and muscle utilization. We can also use this technique for posture training, and muscle engagement.
Postural changes and muscle firing timing can also be re-enforcement with taping techniques. This will help decrease the time needed to carry over to real life situations.
There is not a better certification in Omaha for RockTape Application.
Movement Systems Analysis (slow motion and laser guided feedback)
At C.O.R.E. Physical Therapy in Omaha, we are dedicated to providing our patients with the latest research-based and cutting edge treatment programs and interventions for Physical Therapy.
We offer a myriad of services with the interest in providing you with the best option for optimal recovery in a reasonable time frame.
Slow motion analysis, video movement feedback, velocity and bar tracking patterns, and laser leveling visual feedback can be performed in real time movement patterns. We have pioneered and developed this technique in Omaha.
