Did you know that Charlie is Manual Therapy Certified?
Manual physical therapy is a specialized form of physical therapy delivered with the hands as opposed to a device or machine. In manual therapy, practitioners use their hands to put pressure on muscle tissue and manipulate joints in an attempt to decrease back pain (as well as other painful conditions in the neck and throughout the body) caused by muscle spasm, muscle tension and joint dysfunction. This certification is a graduate level program consisting of up to 20 additional college course credits. Charlie completed this graduate program at the University of St. Augustine where he earned his Doctorate in Physical Therapy.
It has been heavily researched and proven that Manual Therapy techniques work best for many painful conditions including Back and Neck Pain.
Also, did you know that while patients may be referred for physical therapy treatment by their primary care doctor, an orthopedic surgeon, or other doctor involved in their back care, most states, including Florida, have direct access laws permitting patients to seek help for low back pain from a licensed physical therapist without having to seek a written referral.
