Is Physical Therapy Right for you?Physical therapy is a type of rehabilitative medicine that is used to treat disease, injury or deformity.  Our physical therapists work with patients to help them reduce pain, increase flexibility and restore or improve mobility. When you choose physical therapy, you will improve the overall health by prevention, wellness and disease management. Certainly something that will help throughout your recovery.

Orthopedic physical therapy focuses on the diagnosing and treatment of the musculoskeletal system. Knowing more about this system can be beneficial in understanding physical therapy. The musculoskeletal system includes any area within your body that gives you the ability to move, including:

  • Bones
  • Muscles
  • Cartilage
  • Ligaments
  • Tendons
  • Connective tissues
  • Joints

Physical therapy can prove to be helpful in a wide range of circumstances. If you’re hurting, now is a good time to look into it in order to get relief. Here are a few cases in which physical therapy may be right for you.

  • Patients after orthopedic surgery or serious injury
  • Patients lacking mobility or function
  • Patients with pain (lingering, sharp, centralized or dull)
  • Patients with a disability or deformity

Since you know your own body better than anyone, it is important to listen to the cues it may be giving you. If you notice something is off, do not delay to get it checked out. It’s best to take care of it sooner rather than later.
