Orthopedic and Sports Physical Therapy

Mobilization and manipulation of joints to decrease pain and improve motion.

A neurophysiological evidence-based treatment technique using solid filiform needles (acupuncture needles) for the treatment of muscle pain. Dry needling requires effective manual assessment of the neuromuscular system. Research supports that dry needling improves pain control, reduces muscle tension, normalizes biochemical and electrical dysfunction of motor end plates, and facilitates an accelerated return to activity. Physical therapists at Baylor are well trained to utilize dry needling in conjunction with manual physical therapy interventions.

A six-week jump program proven to reduce ACL injuries in females and a must to complete in order to return to sport with confidence.

An anti-gravity treadmill that unweights a user through "differential air pressure,” a technology developed by NASA. It is used for rehabilitating the lower extremity following injury or surgery, aerobic conditioning, weight control, gait training for neurological conditions and strengthening and conditioning the elderly.

Devices used to help assist with range of motion following surgery.

A suspension trainer that utilizes one’s own body weight to improve strength, flexibility, and balance.

This remarkable procedure allows us to detect and treat areas of “scar tissue” or adhesions in muscles, tendons and ligaments that can reduce our range of motion and cause pain.

In the healing process, our body attempts to repair those areas by creating “scar tissue,” much like the scar that forms on the skin when you have scraped or banged your knee. Learn more

• 1:1 personalized treatments (45–55 minutes). Focused, hands-on visits targeting pain, mobility, strength, balance, and function.
• Necessary equipment comes to you. Your therapist brings a treatment table and a mobile kit; 90% of cases don’t require heavy machines.
• Same therapist, better continuity. Patients are matched to a local therapist based on specialty, geography, and schedule; you’ll work with the same therapist for your plan of care, with secure messaging between visits.
• Outpatient care at home (not home health). PT at Home is in home, outpatient therapy; patients do not need to be homebound.

• Busy professionals and parents; post-surgical patients; those at risk of falls; kids 10+; and anyone who finds travel to a clinic difficult.

Our therapists tailor care to your goals and environment, prioritizing safety and function at home:

• Manual therapy and therapeutic exercise (mobility, strength, flexibility)
• Gait training and balance/vestibular strategies for fall prevention
• Post-operative rehabilitation protocols coordinated with your Baylor Medicine clinicians
• Activity modification, home setup guidance, and progressive return to function plans
