Your recovery is a journey. We have the map.
At CT Physical Therapy Care, we know that no two injuries are the same. A grandmother recovering from a knee replacement needs a different plan than a marathon runner with a sprained ankle.
That is why we don’t use a “one-size-fits-all” approach. Instead, we use a proprietary 4-Level of Care™ System that meets you exactly where you are—whether you are in severe pain or ready to return to sports.
Our Unique Approach: The Levels of Care
Most clinics just “treat pain.” We go further. We guide you through a structured roadmap from the moment you walk in until you are fully recovered.
See Our Full Roadmap (The Level of Care™ Hub)
🛑 Level 1: Protective Care
Status: The “Red Zone” (Acute Phase)
Are you in severe pain? If you just had surgery or suffered a recent injury, your body is sounding an alarm. We don’t force movement here. Instead, we focus on stopping the pain, reducing inflammation, and protecting your injury so healing can begin.
- Goal: Put out the fire.
- Treatments: PRICE Method, Pain Management, Bracing.

🟡 Level 2: Gentle Care
Status: The “Yellow Zone” (Caution Phase)
Is your pain manageable, but you feel “stiff”? Once the acute pain settles, we proceed with caution. We use hands-on manual therapy to “oil the rusty gears” of your joints. We focus on restoring your range of motion without causing pain.
- Goal: Motion is Lotion.
- Treatments: Manual Therapy, Gentle Stretching, Passive Motion.
🟢 Level 3: Progressive Care
Status: The “Green Zone” (Function Phase)
Are you back to work but getting tired easily? You are moving well, but your muscles are weak from rest. Now, we start the engine. We use “Functional Training” to simulate your real-life activities—lifting, carrying, and sitting—to ensure you can handle your daily routine.
- Goal: Recharge the Battery.
- Treatments: Resistance Training, Posture Correction, Core Stability.

🔵 Level 4: Enhance Care
Status: The “Blue Zone” (Performance Phase)
Do you want to be better than before? Recovery doesn’t end when the pain stops. This stage is for the “Athlete in Everyone.” Whether you play sports or just want to chase your grandkids, we focus on agility, speed, and power to prevent future injuries.
- Goal: Peak Performance.
- Treatments: Sports-Specific Drills, Agility Training, Plyometrics.
