Rausch Physical Therapy & Sports Performance is set to expand its comprehensive wellness services with the opening of a new facility in Mission Viejo in April 2025. This center will offer specialized treatments, including Stretch Fix therapy and Pelvic Physical Therapy (Pelvic PT), aimed at enhancing mobility, alleviating pain, and improving overall quality of life for residents in the area.
StretchFix Therapy: Enhancing Flexibility and Reducing Pain
StretchFix therapy is a personalized, one-on-one assisted stretching program designed to improve flexibility, increase range of motion, and reduce discomfort. By focusing on individual needs, this therapy aids in alleviating muscle tightness, enhancing athletic performance, and preventing injuries.
The benefits of StretchFix therapy include:
- Improved Flexibility: Regular assisted stretching helps lengthen muscles, leading to increased flexibility and reduced stiffness.
- Enhanced Athletic Performance: By improving range of motion, athletes can perform movements more efficiently and with a lower risk of injury.
- Pain Reduction: Targeted stretching can alleviate muscle tension and discomfort, contributing to overall pain relief.
- Injury Prevention: Maintaining muscle elasticity through regular stretching decreases the likelihood of strains and sprains.
Rausch Physical Therapy's Mission Viejo location will provide StretchFix therapy sessions tailored to meet the unique needs of each client, ensuring personalized care and optimal results.
Pelvic Physical Therapy: Addressing Pelvic Health Concerns
Pelvic Physical Therapy (Pelvic PT) is a specialized branch of physical therapy focused on the evaluation and treatment of musculoskeletal and neuromuscular dysfunctions related to the pelvic region. Conditions addressed by Pelvic PT include pelvic pain, incontinence, postpartum recovery, and sexual dysfunction.
The importance of pelvic floor health cannot be overstated, as it affects various aspects of daily life, including bladder and bowel control, sexual function, and core stability. Factors such as pregnancy, childbirth, aging, and surgery can contribute to pelvic floor dysfunction, leading to symptoms like urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and chronic pelvic pain.
Rausch Physical Therapy employs experienced therapists specializing in pelvic health to provide comprehensive assessments and individualized treatment plans. Therapeutic approaches may involve:
- Pelvic Floor Muscle Training: Exercises aimed at strengthening or relaxing the pelvic floor muscles to restore proper function.
- Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques to address muscle tightness, improve blood flow, and reduce pain.
- Biofeedback: Utilizing sensors to provide real-time feedback on muscle activity, aiding in the retraining of pelvic floor muscles.
- Education: Providing information on lifestyle modifications, posture, and body mechanics to support pelvic health.
By offering Pelvic PT services, Rausch Physical Therapy aims to empower individuals to regain control over their pelvic health and enhance their overall well-being.
Expert Team and Personalized Care
The success of any therapy program heavily relies on the expertise of the practitioners. Rausch Physical Therapy prides itself on a team of highly qualified professionals dedicated to delivering exceptional care. For instance, Dr. Rebecca Gasca, a lead Pelvic Health Physical Therapist at Rausch PT, specializes in sports therapy, pelvic floor rehabilitation, and manual therapy. Her extensive experience and compassionate approach have been instrumental in helping patients achieve significant improvements in their pelvic health.
Similarly, Esteban, serving as both a StretchFixologist and Physical Therapist Aide Manager, brings a wealth of knowledge and enthusiasm to the StretchFix program. His background in psychological sciences and commitment to patient care contribute to a supportive and effective therapy environment.
