How Physical Therapy Can Prevent Health Issues

We tend to think of physical therapy as something prescribed for recovery from an injury but, many feel PT can also be an important tool in preventative care by optimizing movement and promoting health, wellness and fitness.

A recent National Council on Aging article points out that “a physical therapist can make a meaningful impact in your life by helping you to stay independent so you can do the things that matter the most.”

The Council on Aging article answers questions including:

  • How do you set up a preventative PT visit?
  • How often you should see a physical therapist?
  • Who pay? Is it covered?
