What is physical therapy and how can it help me?

Our world is bombarded with pills for every condition. Though they are needed at times, we recognize another avenue of dealing with pain than just taking another pill. Robert Butler has said “if exercise could be packed into a pill, it would be the single most widely prescribed and beneficial medication in the nation.” Physical therapy can naturally decrease your pain by teaching you the most appropriate exercises for your condition.

It is unfortunate that many people believe they just have to live with their pain or other functional limitations because of a degenerative disease (e.g. arthritis) or other injury. The truth is, physical therapy can help abolish your pain, restore lost strength, flexibility, or balance. Many people begin seeing an improvement on their first visit and find that when therapy is over, they are feeling better than they have in a long time.
