What is Physical Therapy?

It’s a personal wellness plan tailored for you

Your physical therapist (PT) will examine you and develop a plan of care using a variety of treatment techniques that help you move, reduce pain, restore function, and prevent disability. Your physical therapist can also help you prevent loss of mobility and motion by developing a fitness- and wellness-oriented program tailored to your specific needs.

Your PT is your partner in health

A physical therapist is your partner throughout your journey to restoring and maintaining motion so that you can function at your personal best.
