Spinal Rehabilitation

Mizuta & Associates

Helping You Live, Work, and Play Better

Back pain is the number one reason patients seek physical therapy. The key to the successful rehabilitation of spinal disorders is by correctly assessing the problem, creating an individualized treatment program and also focusing on education and prevention of future recurrence. Our highly certified therapists have been extensively trained in functional rehabilitation and spinal stabilization techniques as well as the comprehensive McKenzie Method. Our goal is to return our patients to their lifestyle as quickly as possible. For more information on some of the most common spinal diagnoses and treatments, please read below.

Common Spinal Issues

  • HOW DO I SCHEDULE A PHYSICAL THERAPY APPOINTMENT?
    Contact our office, Monday through Friday 7:00am to 7:00pm, at 619-564-7120. Our front office staff will be happy to answer any questions you may have as well as verify your insurance benefits for physical therapy and inform you of any steps you may need to take to start treatment.
  • WILL MY HEALTH INSURANCE COVER PHYSICAL THERAPY?
    Most health insurance plans cover physical therapy. If you are unsure if your insurance covers physical therapy, please call our front office to have one of our team members verify your insurance benefits. We will let you know exactly how much you will owe if physical therapy is covered before we schedule your initial evaluation.
  • DO YOU HAVE CHANGING FACILITIES?
    Yes, we have private treatment rooms and bathroom facilities for patients to change.
  • WHAT WILL I BE DOING AT PHYSICAL THERAPY?
    During your initial evaluation, your therapist will gather information about your medical history, as well as perform tests, measure your range of motion, strength, and performance in order to establish a baseline for your treatment. At the end of this visit, your therapist will give you a plan of action as to what to expect for your physical therapy treatment.
  • HOW LONG ARE MY PHYSICAL THERAPY APPOINTMENTS?
    You will spend a full hour with a licensed physical therapist for each appointment. We do not use any technicians or aides at our clinic.
