Lyme Disease Rehabilitation

 

PT360 has developed the first Lyme and Tick-Borne Disease rehabilitation program in Vermont, optimized by our unrivaled staff of therapists.  We provide supportive therapies to ensure that every patient receives the most progressive therapy and quicker return to health.

 

At PT360, our Lyme and tick borne illness program focuses on eradicating disease, detoxification, and rebuilding the body.  Our program works to gently recondition with strengthening and stretching while gradually increasing cardiovascular component of exercise.  We incorporate manual lymph drainage, myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, modalities including the use of the Biomat, aquatic therapy, and patient education regarding exercise in the disease cycle and self-treatment.
