 Physical
therapy helps patients return to a more normal, active life
as quickly and efficiently as possible by improving and maximizing
physical strength and functioning. PT works to relieve pain
and promote health through evaluation and treatment of a biomedical
dysfunction. PT is involved with a wide variety of diagnoses
including:
- Orthopedic conditions (such as post
op surgical patients, sprains, fractures)
- Wounds
and burns
- Pain syndromes
- Neurological disorders (such as stroke
and traumatic brain injury)
- Age related de-conditioning
- Debilitating illnesses
(such as arthritis)
- Neuropathy and peripheral nerve
damage.
