From Injury to Recovery at LightPort Physical Therapy & Spa®
By Christine S. Maxwell
When looking to establish his physical therapy practice, Dr. John De Hoyos, DPT had two goals in mind. He wanted to focus on quality oneon-one patient care, in a small community town, where he and his team could focus on the comfort and the success of each patient’s treatment experience. He discovered Caldwell, a town with excellent small businesses and unique attractions, a town that he and his family love. There he started LightPort Physical Therapy & Spa® in March 2016.
In addition to Dr. De Hoyos, LightPort Physical Therapy & Spa® has four employees who provide physical therapy and therapeutic massage services. They include a manager, a physical therapy assistant, a licensed massage therapist, and a setup aide. The team treats primarily orthopedic problems, musculoskeletal issues, neuromuscular conditions resulting from Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis and stroke, through physical therapy and targeted massage techniques. They also work on issues related to prosthetics, such as knee and hip replacements, before and after surgery, and throughout the recovery period. “We treat any movement problem caused by injury to muscles and joints,” says Dr. De Hoyos.
Dr. De Hoyos has specific goals to ensure maximum recovery for each patient to return to work or sports with no limitations. To achieve this goal, the team first educates the patient. “We make sure they understand their injury, the recovery process, and ease their fears. Patients have a home exercise program during and after recovery,” he states.
Patients praise the responsiveness of LightPort Physical Therapy & Spa®. When arriving for appointments, patients are seen immediately upon arrival, with little or no wait time. An employee is always with the patient to provide direct supervision, and ensure the safety and efficiency of the treatments. “We are there 110% for our patients, from injury to recovery,” remarks Dr. De Hoyos.
