Definition of Physical Therapy

Physical therapy is a treatment that works with your body to improve your mobility and reduce your pain. Physical therapy can reduce or eliminate your need for prescription pain relievers. It could also prevent you from having to undergo invasive surgery.

During physical therapy, a physical therapist guides you through exercises that move the injured or diseased area. You move them at a slow pace that gently works the muscles and soft tissue. Our practitioner will put a slight amount of pressure on the body part to assist it in moving even further. It helps you regain muscle in the area and also increase flexibility.
