Our mission at Ultra Physical Therapy & Hand Center is to get you back to top level performance as quickly as possible. Whether that be walking the dog or competing in an ultra marathon. We truly understand the pain and frustration both physically and psychologically of not being able to do what you love (and need) to do. From occasional athletes of all ages, to elites we are here to help.
How we help
Our focus at Ultra is to return our patients to a physical state that exceeds prior performance AND a decreased risk of injury. Prevention is the key to optimum health!
What we do
Design and implement evidence based effective individualized treatment programs that may include:
-
Joint and soft tissue mobilization to help facilitate movement and reduce pain. We provide specialist manual therapy care, by therapists who are certified in mobilization techniques that help decrease pain and improve function.
-
Identify less efficient muscle groups and/or movement patterns, and design functional exercises to strengthen and improve neuro-muscular coordination for your sport.
-
Skilled techniques that help improve range of motion with flexibility-based treatments, and can help increase strength and neuromuscular firing patterns when incorporated into a strengthening program.
-
Having a strong core is very important for posture and overall stability. Think of your core musculature (or abdominal muscles) as the anchor from which your upper and lower limbs function. Without a strong core, you're more likely to be prone to injury during sport, or even everyday life. A strong core is also responsible for your sense of balance. We design specific exercises to help improve core strength, balance and coordination.
-
This technique uses stainless steel instruments to help soft tissue injuries to the connective tissues, muscles, neurological tissues and skin. It is effective for soft tissue injuries like repetitive stress injury, strains, sprains and subluxations.

Leading technology designed to get people back to their best after injury or surgery. Used by elites and sports teams around the world, and clinically proven to decrease pain, muscle spasms, and swelling, without the use of narcotics.

Serves many purposes, firstly we can identify specific weakness in muscle groups just by watching you run. Secondly, visual feedback can help you correct compensatory patterns that you may have developed. Finally, using specialized software, we will give you feedback on your form to help improve your running efficiency and ultimately speed.
