Athletico Physical Therapy Opens in Richardson East

Athletico is looking forward to continuing its quality of care throughout the state of Texas

RICHARDSON, Texas, June 13, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Athletico Physical Therapy has opened a new location in Richardson, Texas, located in the same strip mall as Tom Thumb next to Wendy's. This location offers convenient hours, including early morning, late evening and Saturday appointments, and does not require a referral or prescription to start treatment. To learn more, or to schedule a free assessment, visit www.athletico.com/RichardsonEast.

Athletico is committed to keeping employees and patients safe during COVID-19 and has taken several measures, including additional screening procedures, enhanced cleaning practices, and appropriate distancing of patients during treatment sessions. In addition to in-clinic treatment at Richardson East, Athletico is also offering telehealth virtual treatment options where patients can connect with a physical therapist through a secure online video chat. 

"I'm very excited to serve the Richardson East community and provide great quality care to all patients," said Erica "Ricki" Jackson, PT, DPT and Clinic Manager of Athletico Richardson East. "Everyone deserves to live a happy, pain-free life and I want to do my part to help patients in the local area."

Services available at Athletico Richardson East include:

• Physical therapy – Our physical therapists treat you to reduce pain, improve or restore mobility, and to help you remain at your optimal health without further risk of injury. We also offer joint replacement therapy, headache treatment, concussion therapy and more.
• Free assessments – If you have a strain, sprain or nagging pain, you can see one of our experts for a free, 30-minute assessment. We evaluate your injury and recommend treatment. If needed, we can begin treatment immediately, no referral necessary. Please note, restrictions apply.
• Work injuries – We are committed to helping everyone practice safety at work. Our workers' compensation specialists are trained to assess workplace environments and worker behaviors to provide customized intervention techniques and programs. In addition to treating injuries that occur on the job, our services include work conditioning, ergonomics, post-offer/pre-employment testing and more.
• Dry needling – If you are experiencing pain, you may benefit from dry needling. This technique involves placing ultra-thin needles into painful areas of the body to stimulate the pain-causing trigger points in the muscle and connective tissues.
• Blood flow restriction rehabilitation – Blood flow restriction rehabilitation (BFR) uses a specialized inflatable device on an exercising extremity. It is inflated to a specific pressure intermittently to reduce blood flow to the area of the body. BFR technology minimizes the effects of limited extremity use, shortens rehab time, and has been shown to enhance outcomes.

Additionally, Athletico Richardson East:

• Accepts all major insurance plans, so you don't need to worry about your visits not being covered.
• Offers convenient hours, including early mornings, late evenings and Saturdays.
• Does not require a physician referral or prescription to start treatment.
• Schedules each initial evaluation quickly, sometimes the same or next day, but always within 24-48 hours.
• Provides ongoing patient education on diagnosis, treatment plans and prescribed home-exercise programs.
• Practices clear, consistent communication between therapist, physician and patient regarding progress.
