Aquatic Therapy 
Our hydrotherapeutic pool is approximately 92°F.  This warm water is especially helpful in treating our clients who have difficulty with land exercises, are weight-bearing sensitive, or who have multiple diagnoses. The buoyancy of the water helps decrease the effects of gravity while creating resistance for strengthening.
 
Education & Training
Our therapists can arrange to instruct groups in any of the areas discussed on this website as well as additional topics (such as):
  • Back Safety & Ergonomics
  • Cumulative Trauma Prevention
  • Arthritis Management
  • Personal Fitness
  • Prevention and Treatment of Aches Sprains and Strains​
 
Ergonomics/Worksite Assessment
We can provide a comprehensive worksite assessment for those individuals with home or work stations that contribute to their neck, back, upper extremity, or lower extremity pain or dysfunction.
 
Functional Capacity Evaluation
The functional capacity evaluation process is an examination that documents the patient’s current ability to perform work based on physical, medical, behavioral, and ergonomic perspectives. We utilize a system that is based on clinical research with high validity measures.
 
Industrial Rehabilitation
Getting people back to work is one of our main goals at Chugach Physical Therapy. We work closely with employers, insurers, and injured employees to provide return-to-work programs individually tailored to meet the employee’s specific rehabilitation needs.
 
Lymphedema Management 
Lymphedema often occurs in individuals who have had lymph nodes removed surgically or have been treated with radiation therapy. Comprehensive lymphedema treatment is provided by physical therapists trained in manual lymphatic drainage, exercise, compression therapy, patient precautions, and prevention education.
 
Neurological Rehabilitation
Chugach Physical Therapy offers comprehensive outpatient neurological rehabilitation to patients with a variety of diagnoses including stroke, traumatic brain injury, and spinal cord injury.
 
Orthopedic & Sports Medicine
Chugach Physical Therapy provides rehabilitation for all orthopedic injuries. We have extensive experience in sport medicine for elite and recreational athletes. We tailor our sports medicine rehabilitation to fit the goals of the individual athlete.
 
Preemployment Screening
Can the new employee do the job? We can objectively test to ensure that new employees are able to safely perform required duties.
 
Prevention & Treatment of Osteoporosis 
​
We can perform a risk assessment for those with mild, moderate, or severe osteoporosis and design a home exercise program to decrease the risk of falls, increase muscle strength, and hinder bone loss.
 
Sport Specific Fitness Assessments
Whether your sport is golf, running, or hunting, we can assess your strengths and potential weaknesses and develop a plan to help ensure that you are prepared for the upcoming season.
 
Urinary Incontinence 
Both men and women can experience urinary incontinence: a treatable condition involving leakage of urine or “accidents.”  We have a specially-trained physical therapist that treats both stress and urge incontinence.
 
Vestibular Rehabilitation
We provide specialized rehabilitation for vestibular pathologies such as positional vertigo, head trauma, post neuronitis, ototoxicity, and asymmetric vestibulopathy. Therapy aims to improve functional abilities to facilitate independence and decrease risk of falls.
 
Women's Health 
We provide treatment for a wide range of women’s health issues such as pregnancy related back pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, and pelvic pain. Treatment of these conditions centers on patient education and muscle retraining.
