How Physical Therapy Works
At Roxbury West Seattle Burien Chiropractic Clinic, your first session includes a detailed evaluation. We assess your posture, biomechanics, joint mobility, and range of motion to identify the cause of your pain or limitation. Together, we’ll set treatment goals and create a plan tailored to your specific condition and recovery timeline.
Each session typically lasts about one hour. Treatment frequency and duration depend on your diagnosis and progress. Following your plan closely, including home exercises, greatly enhances your recovery outcomes.

Please wear comfortable, flexible clothing that allows easy movement. Bring your insurance card, ID, any physician referral or prescription, and your co-pay if required.
Types of Physical Therapy We Offer
Electrical Muscle Stimulation
This therapy uses a mild electrical current to reduce swelling and ease muscle spasms. It encourages the body to release endorphins, helping relieve pain and relax tight muscles—particularly in the neck and back.
Interferential Electro-Therapy
This method applies a low-frequency electrical current to soft tissue, providing pain relief and reducing inflammation. It supports the body’s natural healing process by stimulating endorphin production and relaxing strained muscles.
Therapeutic Ultrasound
This treatment uses sound waves to vibrate and gently massage soft tissues. It reduces inflammation, promotes healing, and helps prevent scar tissue buildup. Some types of ultrasound also create a mild heat effect, relaxing tight muscles and stimulating deep tissue repair.

FAQs
- Do I need to see a physician before receiving physical therapy?
No. All 50 states, including Washington, allow direct access to physical therapy. You do not need a referral from a medical doctor to begin care. - What’s the difference between a chiropractor and a physiotherapist?
Chiropractors often focus on spinal health and joint alignment, and they can order imaging tests such as X-rays or MRIs. Physical therapists emphasize muscle rehabilitation, mobility, and functional recovery through targeted exercises and hands-on therapies.
