Physical therapists make a difference!

Many people can benefit from Physical Therapy. A construction worker with an injured back... a senior with arthritis... an infant with torticollis... a tri-athlete... a person who has had a stroke... a pregnant woman... or an overstressed business executive. In this diverse group of people, each can benefit in some way from physical therapy.

A physical therapist works with both their patient and the patient's other medical professionals. The therapist takes a personal and direct approach to meeting an individual's health needs and wants, whether a patient's goal is walking without pain or running without hip pain.

For people with health problems resulting from injury or disease, physical therapists assist in the recovery process to make them stronger, relieve their pain, and help them to regain use of an affected limb or to regain their ability to perform daily activities pain free. Because recovery does not end for patients as soon as they are out of the therapist's direct care, physical therapists teach patients and their families what to do so that healing continues through self-care at home.

Physical therapists also seek to keep people well and safe from injury. They do this by teaching the importance of fitness and showing people how to avoid hurting their bodies at work or play. Physical therapists work with other health-care providers, such as physicians, surgeons, Occupational Therapists, rehabilitation nurses, social workers and podiatrists.
