Physical Therapy

At Renue Physical Therapy, our patients are at the center of all we do. This means we don’t rely on equipment to do the work for us, and instead focus on a hands-on approach to customized treatment for each individual. 

Why We Prioritize A Hands-on Approach for Renue Patients:

  • CUSTOMIZED TREATMENT. Providing hands-on treatment allows an experienced therapist to connect with each individual’s unique needs and progress to provide customized treatment
  • EVALUATE AND RE-EVALUATE. A hands-on approach allows the therapist to take into consideration the position of the joint and its mechanics, tone, strength and reaction throughout the course of treatment, adjusting as needed to best serve each patient as they progress
  • TOUCH IS THERAPEUTIC. Hands-on treatment can work similar to a massage to provide relaxation, reduce pain and promote healing
  • EXPERIENCE OVER TECHNOLOGY. Renue Physical Therapy focuses on recruiting the most knowledgeable and experienced therapists available. Our patients benefit from one-on-one, customized care at every visit to help each person achieve the best outcomes possible

Preparing Patients for Life After PT

During treatment, our goal is to give our very best to each patient to help them feel their best. However, our overall goal is to help prepare patients for a pain-free, fully functional life after physical therapy without relying on special equipment.

The best way to achieve this goal is to heal the injury or treat chronic symptoms while also focusing on education that will give patients the tools to prevent future injury, manage chronic symptoms and continue healing through home exercise after discharge.

Realizing that most patients don’t have access to extensive equipment outside of their therapy visits, the most effective home exercises are those patients can do anywhere with body weight or with only minimal equipment like small weights or resistance bands.

The Bottom Line

There is a time and place for equipment when appropriate, but nothing can replace the highest quality hands-on, one-on-one treatment provided at Renue Physical Therapy’s 17 clinics serving Mid-Michigan.
