What is Physical therapy?
We are movement experts! We are here to be part of your healthcare team. Your Physical Therapist will come alongside you in your healthcare journey; pre-, post, or during an injury. Preventative physical therapy is one of the most beneficial, yet unutilized healthcare tools accessible to you.
What does preventative physical therapy do for you?
This form of PT aids in the assessment, strengthening, lengthening, and mobility of your body as an entire system BEFORE you begin to have a problem. A PT can help assess areas of limitation that may predispose you to injury in your everyday life at home, at work, and in recreational activities.
What if I do not think I need therapy?
Perfectly fine! Not everyone is fit for physical therapy! We are here to help you figure that out through your first initial exam! We are here to be a skilled set of eyes and ears to assess specific parts of your body in various ways that you may have never thought to be a source of weakness. Your PT will guide you through specific goals for lifestyle, strength, neuromotor control, flexibility, endurance, managing pain, and overall physical condition.
What do I do if I think I need therapy?
Reach out! Let's get on a call to find out if you are appropriate for PT. You may need to see your primary care physician beforehand (based on your insurance). However, with a quick conversation, we can determine the next steps for you to start on your journey to health, injury healing, and pain-free and unrestricted recovery.
