Physical Therapy Q & A

What is physical therapy?

Physical therapy is a type of rehabilitation. It combines stretches, strengthening exercises, and hands-on manipulation to help you recover following an accident, surgery, injury, or illness. Sometimes, physical therapy acts as a standalone treatment. Other times, it’s combined with treatments like acupuncture, chiropractic care, or therapeutic massage.

Pain management

Management of age-related health problems

If you play sports or lead a physically active lifestyle, physical therapy can maximize your performance on the court or playing field and educate you on the importance of warming up and cooling down.

What does physical therapy involve?

No two physical therapy treatment regimens are exactly alike. Your physical therapist customizes a program based on several factors, including your age, symptoms, and medical history.

Often, physical therapy combines several treatment modalities. For example, if you have a sprain or a pulled muscle, your provider might recommend manual therapy, joint mobilization, and strength training. If you’re 65 or older and want to enhance your mobility, your provider might recommend exercises to improve your balance and strength.

All physical therapy appointments occur onsite at Maniya Health through PTMax, which has a team of experts.

How long do I need to participate in physical therapy?

The length of time you need to participate in physical therapy depends on the severity of your symptoms and the underlying issue. Most people benefit from two or three appointments a week over a period of six to eight weeks and sometimes longer.
