What can physical therapy do for me?

Many people think that going to physical therapy just consists of exercising.

This is correct to an extent, but physical therapy can also have other benefits. A physical therapist can identify poor posture habits that can be contributing to your pain. They can teach you how to reduce the risk of re-injuring an area and are able to strengthen muscles through targeted exercise programs. Physical therapy can help increase your flexibility and strengthening core muscles. They work on your balance and reduce the risk of falls.

Physical therapists will do a full evaluation and come up with a customized treatment plan to meet your needs and goals. Advanced Spine and Pain (ASAP) believes physical therapy serves an important function in getting patients to be pain-free.
