As your partner during your entire recovery process, we will work closely with you during all of your follow-up visits. You will participate in a variety of treatment interventions designed to facilitate your recovery and help you achieve your goals. Every visit is equally important to the overall success of your progress and outcome.
An important part of all therapy treatment plans is patient education. Your therapist will talk with you about your condition every step of the way and may provide you with instructions for a home exercise program. Education regarding proper posture and body mechanics also may be included. In some clinics, physical therapist assistants and certified occupational assistants will assist your therapist with your treatments.
Your therapist will continually assess your progress toward your treatment goals and modify or accelerate your treatment, as needed. Communication is important during your therapy program. If you experience any changes in your symptoms or notice improvements, be sure to share them with your therapist during your visits. Your therapist will monitor your response to treatment and modify your program, as needed.
