“Physical therapy plays an incredibly vital role in the day-to-day lives of patients, as it aims to restore everyday functions of those being treated,” said Robert Direnfeld, PT, DPT and Clinic Manager of Athletico Oro Valley. “At Athletico, we can treat the full continuity of musculoskeletal conditions from young to old, sprain to strain, and even reconstructive surgeries. I look forward to leading my team of physical therapy experts while serving the Oro Valley community.”

In addition to in-clinic treatment at Oro Valley, Athletico is expanding access to care by offering virtual appointments from the convenience of your own home. Patients have the option to have their condition assessed and treated virtually by a licensed physical therapist through a secure online video chat.

Services available at Athletico Oro Valley include:

• Physical therapy – Our physical therapists treat you to reduce pain, improve or restore mobility, and to help you remain at your optimal health without further risk of injury. We also offer joint replacement therapy, headache treatment, concussion therapy and more.
• Free assessments – If you have a strain, sprain or nagging pain, you can see one of our experts for a free, 30-minute assessment. We evaluate your injury and recommend treatment. If needed, we can begin treatment immediately, no referral necessary. Please note, restrictions apply.
• Dry needling – If you are experiencing pain, you may benefit from dry needling. This technique involves placing ultra-thin needles into painful areas of the body to stimulate the pain-causing trigger points in the muscle and connective tissues.
• Graston Technique® – This technique uses six patented stainless-steel instruments to detect and treat scar tissue and soft-tissue restrictions that may be contributing to your pain symptoms and ability to perform activities of daily living.
• Hip rehabilitation – Whether you have pain or tightness in your hips or need rehabilitation before or after a hip surgery, our specialists can provide safe and effective treatment to keep you moving.

Additionally, Athletico Oro Valley:

• Accepts all major insurance plans, so you don’t need to worry about your visits not being covered.
• Offers convenient hours, including early mornings and late evenings.
• Does not require a physician referral or prescription to start treatment.
