- Decreased cost
- Faster recovery
- Potentially avoid the need for surgery, injections or drugs
- Patients and Injuries
-
If it doesn't require an ER visit — like a sore shoulder that's still painful weeks after that flag football game — try direct-access physical therapy for relief. Our highly skilled physical therapists help a range of patients, from professional athletes with recurring sports injuries to long-distance runners with knee pain to existing patients we've previously treated. Visit us at AdventHealth Sports Med and Rehab for needs like:
- Injuries that aren't healing
- Non-emergency injuries
- Recurring back pain
- Sprains, strains, aches or pains
- Why Physical Therapy?
-
Our physical therapists perform a full musculoskeletal evaluation to determine if this is the correct treatment for your injury. These specialized tests — which take into account medical history, how the injury occurred and how the tissue is healing — are used to find the root cause of the problem. Then a care plan is created to address your specific recovery needs. Generally, the earlier a patient intervenes with therapy, the fewer visits that are required for the injury. If the consensus is that physical therapy will not help your particular injury, we’ll refer you to a specialist to assist you.
- Preparing for Your Appointment
-
Wear clothing that will allow the therapist to see the area of concern, and that will enable you to move through a full range of motion so your injury can be accurately evaluated. Additionally, please bring shoes that you would use for exercise.
