The VOI Outpatient Spine Team consists of both physical therapists and athletic trainers who under the prescription of a physician, work closely together to ensure our patients receive the highest standard of professional, comprehensive care. The Spine Team has members that are experienced and have expertise in manual therapy techniques, pain-management control, core strengthening, exercise-based therapeutic procedures and returning patients to all previous activities, including sports and occupation. The Spine Team treats a variety of diagnoses including strains, sprains, arthritis, discal problems, fibromyalgia, and post-surgical patients. Our Spine Team helps guide and educate our patients on maximizing their strength, flexibility, endurance and functional ability. Our goal is to assist our patients in returning to their prior level of activity or to their highest level of functioning.
