Finding a local source of physical therapy is essential for patients in recovery, which is why having excellent physical therapists close to Montrose, Wadsworth, Granger and Sharon Crossings is so valuable. Ferrell-Whited, one of a handful of private practice therapy clinics in Northeast Ohio, has established the Sharon Crossings/Montrose Clinic at 784 Medina Road, Suite 103, Medina, OH, which offers a comprehensive array of physical therapies.
Balance rehabilitation: Critical for bedbound patients and seniors with balance issues, therapists work with patients on balance and strength training exercises to build lower body strength.
Cupping therapy: A centuries-old technique, cupping therapy helps the rid the body of debris, fluid, and stagnant blood through the application of plastic cups that create suction that moves the stagnant blood to the surface where the body can flush it away.
Dry needling: Used to treat chronic muscle soreness and pain, dry needling involves the insertion of a thin needle into “trigger points” or tight muscles that surround the point of pain. It can relieve pain and restore healthy muscle function.
Pain management: For chronic pain sufferers, physical therapy can bring relief from daily pain. Typical chronic pain sources include fibromyalgia, complex regional pain syndrome, and lower back and neck pain. Typical treatments include stretching, low-impact aerobic exercise, strengthening exercises, and specific pain relief exercises.
Sports injury rehab: From shin splits to rotator cuff injuries, sports injuries are a fact of life for active adults. Many of the sports injury therapists at Ferrell-Whited are former high school or college athletes who understand the challenges on a personal level and are tuned in to the latest sports medicine trends and treatments.
Vestibular rehabilitation: Attacks of vertigo, dizziness, unsteady balance, and falls can be treated via vestibular rehabilitation. This treatment addresses strokes, traumatic brain injuries, migraine headaches, vertigo, falling risk, and others. And where traditional vestibular rehabilitation concentrates on the inner ear, our treatments address other symptoms that cause dizziness, vertigo, and loss of balance.
