PHYSICAL THERAPY CAN SAVE YOU TIME AND MONEY.
Current research supports physical therapy treatment first, prior to expensive diagnostic testing such as MRIs and CT scans. Going to your Primary care MD for treatment with pain medications and expensive testing can be time consuming and unsuccessful. If the initial attempt at treatment using traditional medicine doesn’t work then you will be referred to the Orthopedic MD. Generally, this means more expensive testing and possibly more pharmaceutical intervention and then you may be referred for physical therapy. Going to physical therapy first can mitigate the time it takes to get you feeling better and save you money. An initial assessment from a physical therapist can help determine if therapy FIRST is right for you.
