Your Provider
Jeanne Saucier, PT, is the physical therapist at Relief Plus. She provides individualized physical therapy and rehabilitation focused on mobility, strength, functional capacity, and a safe return to meaningful daily, work, or athletic activity.
Understanding Your Symptoms
Recovery requires a plan that can progress with you.
Physical therapy starts with a practical question: what do you want to do that is difficult right now? Your assessment may look at movement, strength, balance, and endurance to find a useful starting point.
Your plan may include guided exercises, movement practice, education, and hands-on care. We adjust the challenge as your strength, comfort, and confidence change.
Understanding Your Care
What physical therapy involves.
01
Functional evaluation
The initial assessment considers movement, mobility, strength, symptoms, activity demands, and the goals that will guide rehabilitation.
02
Guided rehabilitation
Treatment may include therapeutic exercise, movement retraining, hands-on care, and practical strategies selected for the individual.
03
Measured progression
Exercises and activities are adjusted over time to build capacity and support a safe, useful return to daily life, work, or recreation.
Individualized Evaluation
Who may benefit from a rehabilitation evaluation?
Physical therapy may be appropriate for pain, weakness, mobility loss, injury recovery, or difficulty returning to an important activity. The evaluation helps establish realistic priorities and progression.
Mobility limitations
Restricted motion that affects daily tasks or activity.
Strength or control deficits
Reduced capacity, stability, or confidence with movement.
Injury recovery
A structured progression following a musculoskeletal injury.
Return to activity
Preparation for work, recreation, exercise, or everyday demands.
Conditions Commonly Evaluated
Care begins with a clear clinical picture.
Physical therapy may be included in care for these concerns when the evaluation identifies rehabilitation needs. The plan and progression vary for every patient.
One Integrated Clinic
Three pillars. One individualized plan.
Physical therapy may stand alone or work alongside chiropractic care when joint motion, strength, movement control, and activity tolerance all need attention. Advanced regenerative options remain a separate consideration based on clinical appropriateness.

Common Questions
What patients often ask.
What happens during a physical therapy evaluation?
The evaluation considers symptoms, movement, mobility, strength, activity demands, and personal goals. Those findings guide the initial rehabilitation plan.
Will the program change over time?
Usually. Rehabilitation should progress in response to tolerance, function, goals, and clinical findings rather than remain the same throughout care.
Can physical therapy and chiropractic be used together?
They can be coordinated when appropriate. The decision depends on the condition, examination findings, response to care, and the needs of the individual patient.
