TOTAL PHYSICAL THERAPY

TOTAL Physical Therapy treats sprains, strains, fractures, ligament and meniscus tears, and non-traumatic problems such as arthritis, tendinitis, frozen shoulder, and balance problems. Its clinicians also see patients before and after orthopedic surgery and coordinate closely with the operating surgeon. The practice offers aquatic therapy for patients who cannot yet tolerate land-based exercise, a pediatric program for conditions like Osgood Schlatter disease and Sever's disease, cupping therapy, and return-to-sport programs for athletes at every level.

A typical visit lasts about sixty minutes. The first half is one-on-one hands-on treatment with the therapist, and the second half is an individualized exercise program, often finished with electrical stimulation, ice or heat, or vasopneumatic compression. Aquatic sessions are small group, with a therapist in the pool. Patients can request appointments online. There are two clinics in Chula Vista, one on Broadway in West Chula Vista and one in Eastlake.
