Bethany L. Thomas, DPT's Expert Contributions
  • Why does my whole body ache?

    A number of factors could be contributing to your wide-spread pain. I would advise any one who has not seen their primary care doctor to schedule a visit and request a physical evaluation, which may include routine blood work. A physical therapy evaluation may also help guide you to determine whether or not your pain has a musculoskeletal origin, which could then further be addressed with physical therapy treatment, home exercises, or behavioral/ lifestyle modifications.

  • Will physical therapy help me with my leg pain?

    Definitely consider physical therapy! Increasing your physical activity and promoting mobility of your body and legs may help reduce your pain and improve your overall functioning at home! A physical therapist can evaluate you to determine if you will benefit from physical therapy treatment, or if a referral should be made to better address your pain and condition. READ MORE

  • What should I do with my herniated disc?

    Often, an image does not correlate with the presence or absence of pain. Having an evaluation by a physical therapist (PT) can help address any associated impairments that may be contributing to the irritation you are experiencing. Just like having your teeth checked regularly by a dentist, it is a wise idea to have your physical body assessed by a PT on a regular basis! Talk to your primary care doctor about receiving a script for therapy to address your pain, or seek out a physical therapist geographically close to you that accepts direct access patients (meaning an initial script from a doctor is not required).
