Doctors Hospital Human Motion Institute
|
About Our Program
The Human Motion Institute is a unique program offering
a comprehensive treatment continuum of care within a
highly integrated health care delivery network. Our
goal is simple: to return our patients to normal function
as quickly and safely as possible.
To reach this goal, the medical professionals at the
Human Motion Institute enlist a comprehensive, leading
edge approach to the prevention, assessment, treatment
and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal injuries.
Our highly trained team of surgeons, nurses, physician
assistants, rehabilitation specialists and various medical
support personnel works with each patient and their
primary care physician to develop a treatment plan
specifically for that patient.
By combining extensive clinical expertise with a
compassionate, caring treatment philosophy, we have
created a program known for its quality of care.
Announcements and Special Events

5/31/2008 - May is National Arthritis Awareness Month
May is National Arthritis Month. This year, the Arthritis Foundation is urging persons with arthritis to get active for better health. Regular moderate physical activity improves the health and function of joints and reduces the risk for other chronic conditions. Physical activity helps protect joints by strengthening muscles and improving balance and joint nutrition, which leads to better flexibility, joint motion, and physical function. Long-term benefits include reduced pain, improved mental health, and delayed disability.
