 Frequently Asked Questions:
Amputees: Do we take amputees?

Improvement: Will the therapy actually make me better?
- In most cases, physical therapy helps to reduce symptoms. The therapist will evaluate you and determine if your condition can be helped with physical therapy. Some chronic conditions cannot be healed through physical therapy, but symptoms can be reduced. Our goal is to relieve pain and strengthen the body and to help the body heal.
Pain: Will therapy cause me more pain?
