How can physical therapy help me?

Do I need a referral for physical therapy?
No. For specific injury or surgery-related conditions, we may require a doctor’s prescription or referral. However, we accept many patients who simply want to improve mobility, flexibility, strength, or learn methods of managing a chronic condition.
How is my PT treatment plan developed?
Our physical therapists will first meet with you to discuss your needs/goals, review any prescriptions, and assess your condition. We use this information to develop a customized treatment plan. Our PT will then review the treatment plan with you and will answer any questions you have about the process. Together, we’ll determine a schedule for your PT and then we all go to work at rehabilitating the ailment or injury that brought you to us.
What can I expect at a physical therapy session at FRC?
Physical therapy sessions may include exercises, massage, and workouts to improve range of motion, reduce pain, and increase strength and flexibility.
How many physical therapy sessions will I need?
The number of sessions to reach your goals depends on your unique, personal needs based on your condition, severity, and how you progress.
Can I do physical therapy exercises at home?
Yes, your FRC physical therapist will prescribe exercises and stretches for you to do at home to complement in-clinic sessions. Consistency with home exercises is essential for achieving the best results.
Is physical therapy painful?
PT shouldn’t be very painful. You may experience some discomfort during exercises or manual therapy but it should not cause severe pain. If you do experience this, please tell your physical therapist immediately.
