It is essential that a physical therapy regime incorporates individualized attention into the patient's specific recovery program.

Upon evaluation of your physical condition, a skilled therapist is trained to incorporate outside factors into their assessment of your unique situation. They assist patients in restoring health, alleviating pain and examining and diagnosing changes in physical function and health status resulting from injury, disease or other related causes. Intervention, and promoting health, wellness and fitness is vital to the practice of Physical Therapy. Recognizing and acknowledging these needs can assist in ensuring your return to a healthy level of function and in achieving a successful treatment outcome.

An individualized program, specific to your needs, will be prescribed and administered by your therapist, as recommended by your physician. An initial assessment, as well as ongoing progress checks will be passed on to your referring doctor in order to monitor your condition.

Upon completion of your visits, continued therapy, or a home regiment might be indicated and recommended for your continued improvement. It is not unusual for a patient to discuss their progress with their physician, and if their physician concurs, to seek follow up with their therapist in order to help ensure an optimal result. It is the goal of physical therapy, and of your doctor's prescribed treatment, not to just resolve an initial complaint, but to prevent the condition from recurring in the future.
