WHAT IS PHYSICAL THERAPY?


Physical Therapy (PT) is a healthcare profession focused on the evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment of movement disorders.
Physical therapists use evidence-based interventions such as therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, patient education, and physical modalities to reduce pain, restore function, improve mobility, and prevent injury or disability following illness or injury.

Physical therapy aims to help individuals return to their highest level of physical function by improving motor skills, range of motion, strength, flexibility, balance, and coordination. In addition to rehabilitation, physical therapy emphasizes prevention by educating patients on proper movement strategies to reduce the risk of future injury and pain.
