What is Wellness Physical Therapy?
Wellness physical therapy programs are utilized by individuals for various health, wellness and performance goals: strength and conditioning programs, return to sport, running, walking or hiking programs, injury prevention and risk reduction programs, continuance of physical therapy after insurance exhaustion, treatment sought after biomechanical analysis, and treatment sought by individuals who have no specific pathology but desire to improve their movement performance.
Wellness physical therapy is often utilized by the client who has finished formal rehabilitation and is looking to return to the demand of their sport with reduced risk of re-injury. Wellness physical therapy is non-insurance based service provided by DSMC.
Entrance into a wellness physical program begins with a wellness physical therapy evaluation to assess movement impairments in strength, range of motion, stability and biomechanics. From the evaluation a treatment plan is then developed with the focus on the individual’s health, wellness and performance goals.

Accelerate Your Rehabilitation
By Optimizing Tissue Healing at the Cellular Level
Treat the Muscle, Tendon and Ligament at the Cellular Level - Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave Therapy uses controlled acoustic waves to target affected tissues and stimulate a healing response. Originally used in orthopaedics and sports medicine, it has shown powerful benefits for those experiencing chronic nerve pain.
Specifically, Shockwave has been proven to help by:
-
Increasing blood flow to damaged nerves
-
Stimulating the release of growth factors and regenerative cells
-
Breaking up fibrotic tissue around nerves that may be contributing to compression
-
Helps reduce chronic inflammation
-
Encourage the body to form new blood vessels, supporting nerve repair
-
Shockwave is a non-invasive, drug-free option with no downtime, and it’s backed by clinical research as an effective method for managing chronic pain conditions.
Treat the Nerve at the Cellular Level - Stimpod
Stimpod NMS460 is one of the most innovative tools available for treating nerve dysfunction – we’re delighted to be able to offer it to our patients! Unlike traditional electrical stimulation, Stimpod uses radio frequency pulsed stimulation to target damaged nerves directly. It works by interrupting dysfunctional pain signals and helping the nervous system “reset.”
How Stimpod Supports Nerve Function:
-
Re-educates peripheral nerves to restore normal signaling
-
Provides rapid relief from tingling, numbness, and burning
-
Improves muscle activation in cases of nerve-related weakness
-
Enhances nerve communication with surrounding muscles and tissues
Many of our clients report noticeable improvements in just a few sessions. It’s a completely pain-free, needle-free therapy – and a safe, effective solution even for those who haven’t responded to other treatments.
