Physical Therapy: Benefits and Solutions

Whether your goal is to relieve neck or back pain, prevent migraines, correct posture, rehabilitate post-surgery, or improve aerobic mobility, physical therapy offers a tailored approach to targeting your individual strength and physical needs.

Patients are able to experience changes in their condition by engaging in a minimally invasive personalized program.  

In this article, we will review 5 of the most common conditions that physical therapy can improve.

When it comes to treating neck and back pain, one of the primary goals of physical therapy is to improve flexibility and overall strength. Stretches and active exercises under the guidance of a certified health professional, can help support and gradually improve the mobility of the spine. Over time, this along with other lifestyle changes can help relieve pain for the long-run.

When working in day-to-day life, headaches and migraines can often become debilitating. Some are even linked to neck and or jaw dysfunction. Working on increasing the mobility of soft tissue and correcting underlining neck problems can help eliminate headaches long-term.  

Hundreds of thousands of healthy Americans suffer from poor posture. Conditions such as lumbar lordosis and kyphosis are some of the most common postural problems. Engaging in a long-term physical therapy plan can help correct these issues, preventing discomfort and residual symptoms down the line.  

If you have suffered a traumatic injury that resulted in surgery, a strategic rehabilitation program can help prevent pain and mobility challenges over time. Careful movements under the guidance of a certified health professional can greatly improve motion, allowing for supporting muscles to be activated (further stabilizing the area). Furthermore, an increase in careful motion allows for healthy blood flow to promote healing at the site.
