Will Therapy Be Painful?
For many patients, one of the primary objectives is PAIN RELIEF. This is frequently accomplished with gentle hands on techniques of massage, stretching, modalities such as ultrasound, electrical stimulation, and/or heat or ice. As we improve one's movement and alignment they will often experience pain relief as well. Your Physical Therapist will provide you with the appropriate exercises not only for pain relief, but also to recover range of motion, strength, and endurance. Our first priority is always YOU our patient and how well you are doing in progressing through your rehabilitation in the most comfortable manner possible. |
