Head Physical Therapyin Colorado Springs

We specialize in the treatment and management of acute concussions as well as those with persistent and chronic symptoms. We utilize a patient centered care model incorporating a multi-disciplinary team approach to ensure the best possible care to return you to sport, work and recreational tasks. The management of concussions entails addressing blood flow impairments by utilizing graded exposure to aerobic exercise, improving vestibular and visual dysfunction as well as performing manual therapy and corrective exercises for cervical spine involvement. In addition, a holistic approach is utilized with education on diet and sleep to further improve symptoms. Our main goal is to ensure a safe recovery following this injury and to spread public awareness and education about concussions and how a physical therapist can help. We also provide a comprehension baseline test consisting of 8 tests analyzing neurocognitive function, memory, reaction time, balance and more. Please contact one of offices to learn more!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • If we are asking you to do something that is hurting too much, let us know! Physical therapy should not be severely painful. It is not common to be so sore that patients are in pain or it affects their daily life. If this ever happens during or after an appointment, let us know and we will adapt your program.

  • We recommend budgeting 40-60 minutes for a typical therapy session. The only exception to this will be your first visit, which can take about 20 minutes longer due to the physical therapy evaluation your therapist will provide. We also recommend showing up about 10-15 minutes early to your first visit. This way, you can complete the paperwork before your visit time and streamline the process.

  • A typical order for physical therapy will ask for 2-3 visits per week for 4-6 weeks. Sometimes the order will specify something different. What generally happens is for the first 2-3 weeks, we recommend 3x per week. This is because it will be the most intensive portion of your treatment. After that, it is common to taper to 2x weekly, based on your level of function and progress.

  • Yes. Physical therapy works based on the science of how the body rebuilds and heals. The biggest killer of progress is inconsistency. We recommend adhering to your prescribed sessions agreed upon in your PT Eval to achieve desired results.

Manual Edge Patient

“Manual Edge is wonderful. The front desk staff are super sweet. Val is absolutely amazing! She’s helped so much with my pain. She listens and really tries to find the perfect way to help you out. She doesn’t just give you the routine she gives everyone else. She definitely makes it as personal as possible.”

Christine D.

Manual Edge Patient

“Most PT places herd you in and out like cattle. Very little personalized care. Manual Edge is 100% personal care, not “go ride the exercise bike for 20 minutes while I drink coffee with the rest of the staff”. Teresa is great, but I’ve heard great things about the rest of the staff from friends and family. This place is light years ahead of other PT providers.”

“My wife and I have been treated at other PT practices and none holds a candle to Manual Edge! You get actual hands on manipulation for your whole session that really helps vs. other places that give you a few mins of therapy, then slap a hot pad on you, give you some exercises and you’re done.”
