AposHealth® Expands Partnership With Professional Physical Therapy to Offer Its Drug-Free Solution to Knee and Low Back Pain Patients at Additional Massachusetts Locations

March 12, 2020

BOSTON, March 12, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AposHealth® has strengthened its partnership with Professional Physical Therapy to bring a non-invasive, drug-free alternative to surgery to additional Massachusetts residents suffering from knee and low back pain.

The AposHealth® program is now available at the following Professional Physical Therapy clinics:

  • Woburn: 300 TradeCenter Drive, Suite 1650, Woburn, MA 01801
  • Boston – Government Center: 44 School Street, Suite 350, Boston, MA 02108
  • Andover: 138 River Road, Suite 101, Andover, MA 01810
  • Marshfield: 696 Plain Street, Marshfield, MA 02050
  • Newton: 19 Needham Street, Suite 201, Newton, MA 02461

AposHealth® works on biomechanical and neuromuscular levels, combining a treatment program and a patented, footworn medical device that patients wear for approximately an hour a day while going about their regular routine. The treatment addresses the underlying causes of the pain, not just symptoms, by reducing load on painful areas of the knee and retraining muscles. Over time, AposHealth® corrects abnormal walking patterns, even when patients are not actively wearing the device.

Clinical studies have shown significant reduction in pain and improvement in function and quality of life, as well as significant reduction in the use of pain medications, such as opioids.

“We are excited to be partnering with Professional Physical Therapy to provide relief for knee and low back pain without opioids or invasive procedures,” said Dr. Cliff Bleustein, President and CEO of AposHealth®. “Professional Physical Therapy brings state-of-the-art approaches to patient care, maintains the highest level of quality outcomes, invests in continuing education, and is well positioned to advance the treatment of patients with AposHealth®.”

Todd Herzberger, Chief Operating Officer of Professional Physical Therapy adds, “We’re thrilled to expand the availability of AposHealth® to additional communities in New England. The exceptional outcomes achieved by our patients, along with the positive feedback from our physical therapists, made the decision to extend this service to additional Massachusetts clinics a no-brainer.”
