Physical Therapy

Physical Therapy gets patients back on the move.

What is Physical Therapy?

Physical therapy is a type of medical treatment that helps people move again, like standing, walking, and moving different parts of their bodies. Physical therapy can be a good way to treat illnesses or injuries that cause pain, problems with movement, or limited mobility.

Physical therapy can both fix problems and keep them from happening. Physical therapists can fix functional movement imbalances in people who have been hurt or have health problems. They can also use techniques to keep people from getting hurt and improve their performance.

This treatment is done by people who are called physical therapists, physiotherapists, or PTs. These specialists teach patients how to improve their mobility, strength, and ability to function.

What are the Pros of In-Home Physical Therapy?

The most common reason people visit a physical therapist is to treat pain or a potential injury that is negatively affecting their ability to move and exercise normally. When you first visit a physical therapist for pain, they will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to identify postural deficits, observe your movement patterns, and test your muscle strength and joint range of motion in the painful area and the surrounding muscles and joints.

All of this is done to aid in the identification of any limitations that may be contributing to your pain. From there, they can develop an individualized treatment plan that focuses on improving strength and mobility where it’s needed and reducing pressure and pain at specific joints. Physical therapy also carries the following benefits:

Convenience
When the therapist comes to them, they don’t have to worry about the weather, traffic, or other things that can make it hard to get to therapy. Instead, they can focus more on getting better.
One-On-One Care
When a patient gets physical therapy at home, our team gives them their full attention. Most patients feel like they are getting better care when they are treated at home.
Outpatient Care Can Be Stressful
Most of our patients receive therapy at home because they are homebound, and getting to a facility for therapy can pose a difficult obstacle and stressor. In-home care with HealthFlex can help eliminate the stress of finding a way to get to therapy sessions that are vital to our patient’s health.

Effective
The most important thing about how effective in-home therapy can be is how well the patient follows the treatment plan. Patients also found that in-home treatments were more intense and focused because the therapist worked with them in their own homes, where they felt more comfortable and confident.
Better Functionality
When a physical therapist works with a patient at home, the patient can immediately relate to the movements and exercises. For example, when a physical therapist tells their patient to perform a certain stretch or exercise in a doorway, they can show the patient exactly which doorway to use and how to do the specific stretch. Even though this may seem like a small thing, having a routine fit into the patient’s familiar environment helps them follow it and understand it better.
Less is More
With in-home therapy, the physical therapist has to keep the session simple, using only what the patient has at home and what can fit in their car. This can lead to the patient going back to basic strength-building and flexibility exercises, which give them more things to do between their therapy sessions.
