1 Purpose and Goals

2  Purpose: Improves balance/explosive power/coordination through cutting/jumping/hop- ing exercises  Goals: Increase strength, mobility, ROM; return to sport/activity

3  Purpose: To allow physical activity in a controlled manner  Goals: Increase ROM, increase circulation, increase flexibility, increase mobility, decrease swelling

4  Purpose: To allow for strengthening and testing at set speeds  Goals: Increase strength, ROM, mobility; return to activity/sport; test strength gains over time

5  Purpose: To challenge balance and core stability during exercise  Goals: Increase balance, proprioception, and core strength

6  Purpose: To allow a joint to be iced with compression  Goals: Decrease pain, swelling, and sensitivity; increase ROM

7  Purpose: To allow for strengthening and testing at set speeds; similar to Biodex and Kin-Com  Goals: Increase strength, ROM, mobility; return to activity/sport; test strength gains over time

8  Purpose: To safely treat musculoskeletal dysfunctions with specific electrical settings  Goals: Decrease pain, swelling, spasm, and stiffness; Increase ROM, mobility, and flexibility

9  Purpose: To give recovering shoulder patients an assist in stretching  Goals: Increase flexibility and mobility

10  Purpose: A dry heating modality that helps avoid hot spots  Goals: Increase circulation; decrease sensitivity

11  Purpose: Facilitate therapeutic exercises, stretching, and positioning  Goals: Increase flexibility, balance, strength

12  Purpose: To assist with control of a patient’s balance during gait training  Goal: Increase balance; mobility, and confidence

13  Purpose: To allow for PT treatment when the patient’s clothing does not do so appropriately  Goal: Patient comfort

14  Purpose: Facilitate treatment of any body part; facilitate proper body mechanics for the clinician  Goal: Can assist in hitting all goals

15  Purpose: To heat hot packs  Goals: Increase circulation, flexibility, mobility; decrease pain, spasms

16  Purpose: To make ice; keep cold packs at the appropriate temperature  Goals: Decrease pain, swelling, spasm; Increase mobility

17  Purpose: To provide continuous cooling to a body part  Goal: Decrease pain, swelling, spasm; increase mobility

18  Purpose: To use electricity to push medication into an injured area  Goals: Decrease inflammation, pain; increase mobility, flexibility

19  Purpose: Provide constant/graduated pressure to limbs  Goals; Reduce edema, swelling; increase mobility

20  Purpose: Uses light to facilitate healing  Goals: Reduce inflammation, pain; Increase mobility, flexibility, function

21  Purpose: To facilitate massage  Goals: Reduce swelling, inflammation, pain, spasm; Increase circulation, flexibility, mobility, comfort

22  Purpose: To provide overall heat to bony areas; facilitate massage  Goal; Decrease pain, spasm, sensitivity; increase circulation, flexibility, mobility; Soften skin

23  Purpose: Assist in gait training  Goals: Increase mobility, confidence, strength

24  Purpose: To help position patients comfortably for treatment  Goals: Increase patient comfort; assists in all goals

25  Purpose: To facilitate therapeutic exercise  Goals: Increase strength, core stability, and balance

26  Purpose: To allow for taping of injuries  Goals: Provide stability, decrease swelling

27  Purpose: To allow long-term, take home electrical stimulation  Goal: Decrease pain, swelling, spasm; Increase circulation, flexibility, mobility

28  Purpose: Facilitate therapeutic exercise  Goals: Increase strength, mobility; return to activity

29  Purpose: Provide controlled pull on joints to provide relief  Goals: Increase circulation, flexibility, mobility; Decrease pain, spasm; alignment of joints

30  Purpose: to allow walking/running in a controlled environment  Goal: Increase mobility, circulation, balance, proprioception

31  Purpose: To allow body weight exercises in a small area  Goals: Increase strength, mobility, flexibility

32  Purpose: Uses sound waves for deep heating effects  Goals: Reduces inflammation, edema, spasm; Increases flexibility, circulation,

33  Purpose: Facilitate strengthening exercises in a controlled manner  Goals: Increase strength, flexibility; return to activity

34  Purpose: To facilitate strengthening exercises in a more functional manner  Goals: Increase strength, flexibility, proprioception; return to activity

35  Purpose: To provide hot or cold therapy  Goals: Decrease pain, swelling, inflammation, spasm, sensitivity; Increase ROM, mobility, flexibility

36  Purpose: Facilitates exercise in a semi- controlled manner  Goals: Increase strength, proprioception, balance

37  Purpose: To facilitate proprioceptive exercise  Goals: Increase strength, proprioception, mobility
