What is Physical Therapy?
Physical therapy is a healthcare specialty that includes the evaluation, assessment, and treatment of individuals with limitations in functional mobility.
Do I Need Physical Therapy:
If you have an injury or illness that results in physical impairment or loss of function, a physical therapist can help. If you have impaired mobility, a physical therapy evaluation may be warranted to offer treatment and a strategy to improve function. Physical therapists can treat many different diagnoses, and impairments. Any problem that causes pain and limits normal movement or function can be evaluated and treated by your physical therapist. Be sure to speak with your doctor if you feel you may need physical therapy.
