Can a physical therapist help to alleviate pain?
In many cases, yes! A physical therapist is trained in use of modalities, stretching, and hands-on techniques that have been shown to reduce or alleviate pain symptoms. While a physical therapist does not typically treat pain alone, we strive to localize the source of pain and direct treatment accordingly. Our skilled physical therapists use a well-rounded approach to help to reduce pain and diminish the root cause of the pain symptom.
