Founded in 1984 by owner/physical therapist David Hite, O.S.P.T has established a long history of excellence in treating a wide variety of orthopedic conditions. While the core of the practice has developed around a progressive, unique spine treatment program, we also provide state-of-the-art rehabilitation for extremity injuries including shoulders, knees, hips and ankles. Most people assume physical therapy is only utilized when an accident or other obvious injury occurs. What they may not realize is that O.S.P.T is able to treat many other problems that intrude into our lives. Issues that often begin as minor aches and pains that people expect are ~normal~ as we age are actually the beginning of an injury from stress and strain that, with the correct intervention, can be alleviated. In fact, many of these problems, such as headaches or pain in the neck and shoulder blades while doing desk work or driving, are due to sustained positions during normal daily activities and a lack of exercise. O.S.P.T's specialized treatment programs, ergonomic training and maintenance programs are effective intervention in these types of problems. When Should People Utilize Our Services? If you are suffering back pain from work injury, too much yard work over the weekend, playing sports, an automobile or other type of accident, or simply just too much of the daily grind, then we can help you gain relief.
