It is impossible to know how many treatment sessions you will need prior to your personal consultation with your therapist. It is important for patients to remember that the goal of physical therapy is to build a foundation of mobility and function that will last a lifetime. As such, there is no quick fix when it comes to a PT treatment solution. Instead, it is necessary to be open to working closely with your physical therapist to find real solutions that work in the long-term. You should feel comfortable being honest with your therapist about how your body is feeling during and after your sessions. It is also important that you are willing to comply with that at-home exercise suggestions in order to achieve the best results possible from your therapeutic treatment. Your improvement will likely happen in stages, and there may be periods of plateau where you do not notice improvements. By pushing through these moments, you will ensure that your physical therapy protocol is as effective as possible.
