National Physical Therapy Month is an opportunity for BaySport to recognize physical therapy as an ideal solution to manage pain caused by an injury and get the patient back to work or play in a timely manner. Our licensed physical therapists have a common goal: to provide individual attention and quickly get the
patient back to optimum health and function. “Treating the cause of the pain can accelerate the healing process as opposed to simply treating the symptom“ says, Daniel Alvarez, D.P.T. “We spend one-on- one time with the patient to learn their history, concerns and goals for recovery.”
The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) states the following advantages for working with a physical therapist to reduce pain:
Exercise – You can lessen the chronic widespread of pain by 28%, if you exercise more than 3 times per week.
Manual Therapy: From carpal tunnel syndrome to low back pain, this type of care can effectively reduce your pain and improve your movement.
Education: Physical Therapists will hep you to understand your pain history, and help set realistic expectations about your treatment.
Teamwork: Your Physical Therapist is able to directly work with you and assess how your pain responds to treatment.
If you’re in pain from an injury or have ongoing pain and you don’t know why, give us a call and schedule a complimentary injury assessment. You will have one-on- one time with a physical therapist to assess your injury.
