Physical Therapy at NSC — Neurosurgery & Spine Consultants

Why It Matters

Spine-Specific Therapy. Surgeon-Coordinated.

Many patients are referred to physical therapy without a clear diagnosis — and they go through weeks of treatment without significant improvement. At NSC, physical therapy only begins once your condition has been properly evaluated and a neurosurgeon is actively involved in your care.

That distinction matters. Your therapy program is designed around your specific diagnosis — whether that is a herniated disc, nerve compression, post-surgical recovery, or peripheral nerve pain. Our therapists know the difference between these conditions and how to address each one effectively.

Because therapy is coordinated with your provider in the same clinic, your progress is monitored in the context of your overall care. If your condition changes — improves faster than expected, plateaus, or requires a different approach — your care team responds together.

Physical Therapy Appointments Within 5 Days

Once your therapy is ordered, most patients are scheduled within 5 days. Access to care here does not require navigating a separate referral system — it is already part of your NSC care plan.

What Sets Us Apart

Not General Therapy. Specialized Rehab.

Rehabilitación especializada, no terapia general

Trained Alongside Neurosurgeons

Our physical therapists work in the same clinic as your surgical team. They know our protocols, understand surgical outcomes, and design your therapy program with that context in mind.

Spine & Peripheral Nerve Specialization

General physical therapy and spine-specific therapy are not the same. Our therapists specialize in spine and peripheral nerve rehabilitation — the conditions our patients actually have.

State Board Certified

Every physical therapist at NSC holds state board certification and participates in ongoing continuing education — including training sessions led by our surgeons and medical device partners.

Coordinated, Not Fragmented

Your therapist communicates directly with your provider. Progress, challenges, and changes in your condition are shared across your care team — not lost between separate offices.
