Physical and Occupational Therapy for Orthopedic Rehabilitation


Often an orthopedic or sports-related condition or injury can be treated through rehabilitation without surgery. Pardee Physical Therapy locations offer outpatient physical and occupational therapy to restore function, mobility and independence, while teaching you how to prevent future injuries.

Licensed physical and occupational therapists work with you one-on-one or in a group setting at locations in Arden, Hendersonville, Asheville and Brevard.

Physical Therapy

All Pardee Physical Therapy locations offer individualized physical therapy to treat:

  • Neck pain or injuries
  • Back pain or injuries, such as a herniated disk
  • Shoulder impingement or rotator cuff pain
  • Tennis elbow
  • Knee pain
  • Sprained ankle
  • Sports injuries
  • Balance problems

Physical therapists use their training in advanced therapeutic techniques to help relieve pain, start your body’s natural healing process and strengthen joints, muscles and other structures to prevent future injuries.

Occupational Therapy

The goal of occupational therapy is to restore your independence, following an injury, illness or orthopedic surgery, especially to the upper extremities including the hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder. Our occupational therapists teach or re-teach you how to perform daily skills to restore your quality of life.

Occupational therapy is often used to treat people with:

  • Chronic musculoskeletal conditions, such as arthritis
  • Carpal tunnel syndrome or other repetitive motion injuries
  • Back pain or injuries
  • Shoulder pain
  • Ligament injuries or instability

Post-surgical care

Physical and occupational therapists also work with patients who undergo orthopedic surgery at Pardee to ensure a safe transition from the hospital to home.
