About Physical
Therapy
...Physical Therapy (PT) can address musculoskeletal issues of any kind.
What comes to mind for most people are strains and sprains and acute
injuries. If you pull a hamstring playing soccer, or fall off a ladder
at work, PT can help you get back to your pre-injury level of physical
activity. Many people are also aware that PT is an important part of
rehabilitation after surgery. If you have a knee replacement or rotator
cuff surgery, it is imperative to start working to restore mobility
and strength of the affected limb very soon.
...People are less aware of many other problems physical therapy can
help with. PT can help alleviate the pain and restricted movement following
any abdominal surgery. Sometimes, something as simple as a slip on the
ice can have a major impact on your body and your ability to move normally.
A little fender-bender can leave a person suffering from headaches years
later. These conditions need not become chronic! However, if a condition
is chronic, PT can help with that, too. Most of us above the age of
30 have various aches and pains of the recurring (or continuous) variety.
We attribute pain and discomfort to getting older and try to learn to
live with it. But we dont have to! Believe it or not knee pain can
disappear overnight. Low back pain and headaches can go away to. There
are many medical conditions that PT can treat without medication or
surgery!
