Occupational Therapy
Occupational therapy works with people of all ages to maximize participation in activities that support daily living and engagement in meaningful activities. Occupational therapists are experts in surgical and conservative management of upper extremity orthopedic injuries, orthosis fabrication, and activity modifications. Occupational therapists make it possible for the injured to regain their independence by providing comprehensive care that takes into account their physical, psychological, social and emotional well-being. Our experienced therapists will create a personalized plan to ensure you have a complete recovery after an injury, surgery, or debilitating condition.

Other Therapy Services
Baseline Concussion Testing
IBJI offers baseline concussion testing at many of our physical therapy locations. The ImPACT Baseline Test assesses baseline concussion symptoms and their severity. It helps doctors understand your baseline abilities to determine if you need concussion treatment and when it’s safe to return to activity.
You can also take an ImPACT Baseline Test using IBJI’s Sports Access app. Download our app from the Apple App Store or Google Play to schedule a test at home.
Blood Flow Restriction Training
Blood flow restriction (BFR) training induces muscle hypertrophy to help patients improve their strength, grow their muscles, and reduce pain after an injury or surgery. This technique uses low-load exercise to allow your body to feel fatigued without muscle tissue breaking down.
IBJI’s orthopedic rehab specialists include expert physical therapists at multiple locations who are certified in the use of BFR training.
Complimentary Injury Screenings
IBJI offers complimentary injury screenings in our therapy clinics for non-emergency conditions. An experienced physical therapist, occupational therapist, or certified athletic trainer will evaluate your injury and offer the best orthopedic rehab plan for your pain or discomfort.
Compression Wrapping
The IBJI orthopedic rehabilitation team uses compression wrapping to help reduce swelling in orthopedic patients. Our physical therapists use this treatment with other services, including incision care and therapeutic exercise.
Industrial Rehabilitation
As part of IBJI’s orthopedic rehabilitation program, we offer comprehensive industrial rehabilitation services, including work conditioning and assessments, functional capacity evaluations, injury prevention training, and post-employment testing.
Our therapists work closely with physicians and specialists, which helps with case management and decreases the time a patient is away from work.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is an effective alternative method for reducing stress and pain. IBJI’s orthopedic rehabilitation specialists aim to improve your physical condition by relaxing the soft tissues in your muscles, increasing your range of motion, and improving circulation throughout your body.
Orthotics
Orthotics are footwear inserts that help treat and correct many lower body conditions. IBJI’s orthopedic rehabilitation staff works closely with physicians and podiatrists to meet your specific orthotic needs.
Pelvic Floor Therapy
IBJI’s pelvic floor therapy services focus on improving overall function for patients with orthopedic, musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, congenital, or developmental conditions. Pelvic floor therapy can relieve pain around the pelvis and increase a patient’s strength, flexibility, and mobility.

IBJI’s sports injury prevention screenings help athletes of all levels prevent injuries before they occur. Our team of expert sports medicine specialists will work with you or your child to determine the most significant risks for injury. They’ll educate you on the proper ways to train and condition with injury prevention in mind.
Video Gait Analysis
IBJI’s video gait analysis professionals can help optimize your running form and prevent running-related injuries. Our physical therapists use video analysis to assess your running style and movement patterns. They will use this analysis to determine if you would benefit from orthotics or a change in shoe style to reduce unwanted stress and strain on your joints and soft tissues.
