Elbow Physical Therapyin Ocean Township and Sea Girt

Your elbow is a complex joint formed by three long bones in your arm. Four sets of muscles help move the joint and are attached to the bones by thick tendons. Damage to any of these structures or to the joints network of nerves, blood vessels and ligaments can lead to elbow pain. Most elbow pain isn’t serious, but because you use your elbow in so many ways it can be disruptive to daily life. Most elbow pain can be improved with simple home treatments. However, if your elbow pain results from injury, physical or occupational therapy can help in healing and preventing future problems.

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 physical therapy visit lasts about 40-60 minutes. The actual contents of the visit vary based on your diagnosis/need, but typically what happens is:

    1. You check in with the receptionist, make any appointments necessary, and we discuss your health insurance benefits with you.
    2. You go into the clinic. You can change clothes if you need to, then begin therapy.
    3. You perform 6-8 various exercises and stretches. These can include therapeutic band exercises, light body weight exercises, or minimal weights. The stretches will promote strength, stability, improved range of motion, and pain relief.
    4. We can initiate other techniques to include manual work, taping, cupping, and dry needling as needed.
    5. The therapist makes recommendations based on your progress. These can include altering the frequency of visits, making additions/alterations to your home exercise plan, or things to do before your next visit.
  • You should wear loose clothes that make it easy to move. We also recommend sneakers. Workout clothes will work, but any comfortable clothing will work fine. Plan on giving your therapist access to your area of concern. The less your clothes restrict your movement and the more comfortable you are, the better. Shorts, yoga pants, or athletic/loose fitting pants and a tee shirt are all good options.

People in New Jersey Trust SOAR PT

Hear from patients that reclaimed their lives.

I had a great experience at SOAR after having cervical spine surgery. I was extremely lucky to have Dr. Chris who was very knowledgeable about my surgery and what was needed for my recovery. I would recommend SOAR to anyone requiring physical therapy. The staff always made me feel comfortable.

I highly recommend SOAR Physical Therapy and Acupuncture. All the staff is very friendly and caring. My physical therapist, Dr. Isabelle Brousse, is very knowledgeable. She was able to develop a treatment plan for my sciatica and my knee injury, and got me back on the road of recovery. I now go to the gym 3 times a week to keep up with my exercises. Kudos to Isabelle and the entire SOAR team.

My son has been seeing Nick for about two months and he’s seeing significant improvement in his health. Nick is wonderful to work with, easy going but pushes where needed which is very important for PT. The office staff is very responsive and attentive.

I had a wonderful experience at SOAR for problems with my lower back. Isabelle is phenomenal. She listens and adjusts her approach with each session based on the current situation. I asked her if one day I’d just be fixed and she was right! I’m now back to my everyday routine/workouts and I feel good as new! Thank you, thank you!!!

I had a very positive experience at Soar. All the staff were friendly and attentive. My therapist, Nick Froio, was very thorough, patient and always made sure I understood the nature of my issues while showing me how to manage and improve my symptoms. I have been in PT many times for various injuries at other practices, and I would not hesitate to return to Soar if needed.

My experience at SOAR Physical Therapy was extraordinarily helpful and cost effective. My hip pain was relieved in a months time and I was educated on an easy to follow exercise program to make sure my pain would not return. The Staff at SOAR is very knowledgeable, attentive and focused on their patient’s well being.

I had a great experience with my therapist Dr. Nick Froio. He gave me exercises to do for my back and hip which improved immensely. Front desk and PT aides were all very professional and would definitely recommend SOAR. Thank you again for giving me strength again!
