Physical Therapy

If your Kaplan physician determines that physical therapy will speed your healing, you will be referred to a member of our physical therapy team, which includes Pat Alomar, Jeanne Scheele, and Jessica Coleman.

Our physical therapists combine outstanding manual skills with a comprehensive understanding of body mechanics. This enables them to successfully treat a wide range of musculoskeletal pain problems, including:

• Sports injury
• Stroke
• Chronic neck or back pain
• Carpal tunnel syndrome
• Bursitis/tendinitis
• Hip pain
• Pelvic floor dysfunction
• Pelvic pain
• Plantar fasciitis
• Sciatic pain
• Migraine headaches
• Fibromyalgia
• Ehlers Danlos syndrome
• Temporo-mandibular joint dysfunction
• Traumatic brain injury
• Post-COVID issues

Our PTs will spend the better portion of an hour working with you, providing hands-on, deep tissue physical therapy, and teaching you exercise programs that you can do at home to help regain your strength and flexibility.

Your physical therapist will consult with your physician about your treatment plan and your response to those treatments. The purpose of this ongoing communication between you, your physical therapist, and your physician is to ensure that we support, in every way possible, your body’s ability to heal itself as quickly and as completely as possible.

Please note: that Virginia law requires a doctor’s note for all new PT patients.
