October 2023 – Physical Therapy Month

Physical therapists are experts in human movement and the musculoskeletal system. They diagnose and treat individuals of all ages, with the goal of improving quality of life through hands-on care, patient education, and prescribed exercise. Physical therapists primarily work with individuals recovering from an injury or surgical procedure, but also care for people who simply want to become healthier and to prevent future issues.

Physical therapists are evidence-based health care professionals who offer cost-effective care that improves mobility and relieves pain, reduces the need for surgery and opioid prescription drugs, and allows patients to actively participate in their own recovery plan that is designed to meet their needs and achieve their individual goals.
