CONDITIONS THAT PHYSICAL THERAPY HELPS IN ST. LOUIS PARK
Physical Therapy helps restore function, improve mobility, relieve pain, and prevent or limit permanent physical disabilities of patients suffering from injuries or disease. Physical Therapy or "medically directed rehab" helps restore, maintain, and promote overall fitness and health. Our St. Louis Park patients include accident victims and individuals with disabling conditions such as low-back pain, arthritis, heart disease, fractures, head injuries, and sports injuries.
Treatment often includes exercise; especially for patients who have been immobilized or who lack flexibility, strength, or endurance. Physical Therapy helps encourage patients to use their muscles to increase their flexibility and range of motion. More advanced exercises focus on improving strength, balance, coordination, and endurance. The goal is to improve how an individual functions at work and at home.
Physical Therapy also helps treat a wide range of patients; such as pediatrics, geriatrics, orthopedics, sports medicine, neurology, and cardiopulmonary physiotherapy.
FAQ'S ABOUT PHYSICAL THERAPY
Do I need to see a physician before I can receive Physical Therapy?
- Maybe. Some private insurance companies no longer require a physician’s referral for Physical Therapy. However, some Physical Therapy patients are prescribed treatment from their physician prior to their therapy being scheduled. Our staff can help you determine if you need a referral prior to scheduling your Physical Therapy appointment.
What is the difference between chiropractor and a physical therapist?
- Our Physical Therapists perform a comprehensive analysis of range of motion, including identifying the joints involved, tissue limitations, muscular imbalances and structural pathologies. A chiropractor will treat the spine and are able to order special tests like X-rays, MRIs and blood tests.
HOW PHYSICAL THERAPY WORKS
Spine Care Chiropractic & Physical Therapy of St Louis Park was designed to provide an ideal environment for healing your body, through chiropractic, massage or physical therapy. When you arrive at our office, our physicians will take a thorough history, and evaluation of the entire body including posture and biomechanics, range of motion and joint mobility to find out the cause of pain or disability. You will then discuss treatment options and goals, so that we can customize a treatment plan catered to you.
Each session will last roughly one half-hour unless directed by the Doctor of Physical Therapy. The frequency of visits and the length of treatment is determined by the physician who prescribed the treatment. The results are typically a result of the patient's commitment. When the patient follows the plan, does their exercises as often as suggested and using the proper techniques, the treatment is typically very successful.
BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT
It is a good idea to arrive at your physical therapy appointment properly dressed. It is best that you wear loose comfortable clothing that doesn't restrict your movement. It is also a good idea to bring your insurance card, a form of identification, the prescription that your physician gave you, and if needed, your co-pay.
