Are X-Rays Necessary to Diagnose Pain?
Most people don’t know that physical therapists can provide treatment without an imaging diagnostic, such as X-Rays, MRIs, or Ultrasounds (US). During your initial visit, they can accurately predict if you have an underlying condition that requires further testing. In almost all cases, an x-ray is not necessary to diagnose pain, and a patient can start physical therapy to get pain relief without spending extra medical costs on extra tests. Advanced diagnostic tests are only needed when pain is too severe to treat solely with physical therapy. A physical therapist can then provide a referral for any diagnostic imaging they need to properly provide care, which studies show has a 91% rate of accuracy.
Top 5 Reasons To Consider PT First for Pain!
When it comes to physiology, aches and injuries can lead to changes in mood, decrease in motivation, and health complications. Depending on the severity of discomfort, it can be hard to execute daily activities, such as work, school, exercise, running errands, or socializing. However, there are simpler solutions than surgery. Studies show how choosing physical therapy for pain leads to long-term improvement and offers multiple benefits over other medical options, such as medication or surgery.
What to Expect at Your First PT Visit!
You may feel overwhelmed about your first physical therapy visit, which might be why you haven’t booked your first appointment yet. When it comes to physical therapy, many patients worry about the requirements needed to get the best out of physical therapy treatment. At Physiologic Physical Therapy, we’re here to assure you there’s nothing to fear. It’s normal to have questions regarding your first physical therapy visit, and a good physical therapist understands your injuries and cares for your best interest.
Who’s Who at My PT Office?
Every physical therapy clinic has a team of medical practitioners and office staff working together to create the best patient experience. Physical therapy treatment is often long-term, requiring multiple visits. Patients will get to know their physical therapy team and office staff well by the time their treatment is complete. Each title is defined by differing roles and responsibility, and it is helpful for patients to know the education and experience every member of their physical therapy team has.
