October is National PT Month, and what better time to celebrate, recognize, and acknowledge the awesome contribution of PT’s to a myriad of health conditions?!!

Physical therapy is often an evidence-based, well-established first line of conservative treatment of many neuromusculoskeletal issues. We all know someone who’s had PT for their knee, shoulder, or lower back. 

What is interesting to note is that PT also helps with conditions that may not always be that common or obvious. Did you know that PT also helps with the following?

Vertigo: we have specialists who perform outpatient rehab to stop your world from spinning!

TMJ/jaw pain: Our PT team can make eating that big juicy steak not just possible, but actually enjoyable!

Cervicogenic headaches: Do you know that some headaches originate from the neck? And working on the neck can help eliminate them for good.

Pelvic floor issues: Pelvic floor therapists will help you manage all issues related to pee, poop, and sex, be it incontinence, pain, constipation, prolapse, or pregnancy-related: and that’s just the tip of the iceberg!

Pediatric physical therapy: Our peds specialists provide pediatric PT care to infants, children, adolescents, and young adults up to the age of 21.

Lymphedema: Physical therapy can help with the management and treatment of lymphedema.

 Concussion: Whether it is related to sports or other kinds of injury, post-concussion syndrome is real. Physical therapy trained in treating this condition can be an invaluable addition to your care. 

These are just a few examples of the wonderful work PT’s do in so many areas of patient care.
