Sports Conditioning and Pre- or Post-Operative Rehabilitation
Physical therapy is a great first-line treatment for most muscle and joint problems and is clinically proven to reduce pain and dysfunction. Physical therapy saves you time and money. Pre-operative physical therapy allows you to recover quicker after surgery as it promotes range of motion, stretching, and strengthening of surrounding muscles to reduce complications and improve the healing process. The American College of Surgeons confirms, “Generally, the more fit and active you are going into a surgical procedure, the more likely you are to retain a higher level of function after.” The means shorter hospital stays, reduced post-surgical pain, less muscle atrophy, and a positive mental attitude. Although other kinds of practitioners will offer some of these treatments as "PT," it's important for you to know that physical therapy can only be provided by qualified and licensed physical therapists.
The cornerstones of physical therapy treatment are:
Patient Education
Therapeutic Exercise
Therapeutic Activity
Neuromuscular Re-education
ADL/Functional Training
Manual Therapy
Depending on the particular needs of a patient, physical therapists may also "mobilize" or "manipulate" a joint (that is, perform certain types of movements at the end of your range of motion) or perform certain soft tissue techniques to muscles to promote proper movement and function.
