At Summit Healthcare Orthopedic Center our physical therapists and physical therapy assistants all have the training and experience to ensure there is a little risk during your physical therapy. We teach proper technique, and we provide the necessary supervision to keep you progressing, not regressing with an injury. We weigh every exercise or manipulation against the individual patient’s strength, balance, and overall condition before initiating anything.
The real risk of physical therapy is not doing it or not adequately following your home exercises. Without physical therapy patients often won’t recover fully, will suffer from more chronic pain, and have a lower quality of life moving forward.
