研究组 & 干预措施
Physical Therapy Group
Patient's in the Physical Therapy Group will have the standard manual treatments during their usual physical therapy visits with no additional intervention
Dynasplint Group
Along with standard manual physical therapy, patients will have a stretching device (Dynasplint) used in rehabilitation to regain ROM in stiff joints. Patients will use this device 20-30 minutes 2 times per day at home.
干预措施: Dynasplint (Device)
