Specialties
Dry needling
A technique used by specially trained Physical Therapists for treatment of pain and movement impairments that are the direct result of myofascial, muscle tissue and connective tissue impairments. Dry needling involves a thin filiform needle that penetrates the skin and stimulates underlying myofascial trigger points and other soft tissues that are not manually palpable.

Manual Therapy
Dr. Kevin Landreneau received his Manual Therapy Certification (MTC) from the University of St. Augustine in 2014. Manual therapy techniques are defined by the APTA as “skilled hand movements and skilled passive movements of joint and soft tissue and are intended to improve tissue extensibility; increase range of motion; induce relaxation; mobilize or manipulate soft tissue and joints; modulate pain; and reduce soft tissue swelling, inflammation, or restriction.”
Joint manipulation
Dr. Kevin Landreneau has been trained by the University of St. Augustine and the Spinal Manipulation Institute in various techniques of joint manipulation utilized to restore normal joint mobility and alignment.
Movement Analysis

Once abnormal movement patterns are identified the Physical therapist will then further examine to identify the musculoskeletal cause of the movement dysfunction and will treat accordingly.
