Ask your physician for a referral to DKH Physical Therapy services. Services may be provided on an inpatient, outpatient or in-home basis, depending on your particular needs and treatment plan.

During the initial evaluation, your therapist will ask questions relating to the onset and nature of your illness, injury or condition, previous and current functional level, the nature of any past and current medical history, and your goals for treatment. These questions, and others, will enable us to plan and coordinate your treatment for optimal results.
