Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation (PM&R)

Patient receiving personalized care from a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist at CLS Health, focused on improving mobility and managing pain.

Personalized Rehabilitation Care

Our physical medicine and rehabilitation (PM&R) specialists prioritize personalized care, recognizing that each patient’s condition, while medically similar to others, requires a tailored approach.

Treatment plans are developed by thoroughly understanding the individual’s unique challenges, strengths, and goals, and combining that insight with advanced therapeutic techniques. Patient education is central to empowering individuals to take an active role in their recovery and long-term well-being.

Conditions We Treat

Chronic back, neck, and joint pain can stem from injury, overuse, or degenerative conditions such as osteoarthritis or herniated discs. PM&R specialists use non-surgical pain management approaches—like joint injections, soft tissue therapies, and medication—to help reduce discomfort and restore mobility. 

After a stroke or neurological event such as a traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, or multiple sclerosis, patients often experience motor or cognitive impairment. PM&R physicians work closely with patients to restore functional independence through individualized rehab plans that may include assistive devices, spasticity management, and strength training. 

Recovery following major surgery, organ transplants, cancer treatments, or long hospital stays requires a structured rehab plan. PM&R specialists at CLS Health help patients safely regain strength, improve endurance, and restore daily function while minimizing complications. 

Mobility issues related to balance disorders, cerebral palsy, or amputation can significantly affect daily life. We offer comprehensive assessments and customized therapies to improve gait, recommend and fit assistive devices like prosthetics or orthotics, and reduce fall risks. 

From acute job-related injuries to chronic pain that interferes with work, our team provides return-to-work evaluations, functional capacity exams (FCEs), and disability prevention strategies. These tools support both the recovery process and safe reintegration into the workplace. 

Symptoms

The need for physical medicine care often becomes apparent when a person struggles to complete daily activities due to pain, weakness, or mobility issues. Whether you’re recovering from surgery or managing a long-term condition, don’t ignore the signs that your body may need support. 

If you feel your pain is affecting your daily routine, it’s a good idea to get checked by a physical medicine and rehabilitation specialist, especially if you notice any of the following warning signs: 

  • Chronic back, neck, or joint pain lasting more than a few weeks 
  • Loss of strength or coordination in arms or legs 
  • Difficulty walking, standing, or maintaining balance 
  • Persistent numbness, tingling, or muscle spasms 
  • Declining function after surgery or hospitalization 
  • Trouble returning to work or completing job tasks 
  • Increased fatigue or weakness after minor activity 

Treatments

We provide non-surgical pain management options to reduce discomfort and improve function. These may include trigger point injections, joint injections, nerve blocks, and personalized medication plans. Each approach is tailored to target the source of pain while supporting your overall wellness. 

A cornerstone of PM&R care, physical therapy helps restore mobility, strength, and range of motion. Therapy plans are customized to your specific diagnosis and goals—whether you’re recovering from surgery, managing a neurological condition, or working on balance and stability. 

Functional evaluations help determine a patient’s ability to safely return to work, perform daily activities, or continue certain physical tasks. These assessments guide treatment plans and are often used in coordination with employers or insurance providers.  

They are typically used to evaluate physical medicine issues, some of which include: 

  • Return-to-work readiness 
  • Level of physical function after injury or surgery 
  • Disability status for insurance or benefits 
  • Need for assistive devices such as prosthetics, braces, or mobility aids 
  • Long-term rehabilitation goals and progress tracking
