Could Physical Therapy Help Your Pain?

In this article you will learn about how physical therapy can be used to manage pain

  • How Is Physical Therapy Used to Treat Pain?
  • Points to Consider About Physical Therapy and Pain

Sometimes pain relief can be accomplished through physical therapy. Physical therapy (PT) involves treatments that focus on prevention and management of injuries or disabilities. PT helps to relieve pain, promote healing, and restore function and movement.

PT is practiced by a professionally trained physical therapist. A physical therapist is a specialist skilled and educated specifically in evaluation and conservative management, including rehabilitation, of orthopaedic, neurologic, and cardiovascular conditions.
