Physical therapy is an effective way for a person to recover from an injury and restore themselves to the same physical condition they were in before the injury. Physical therapy is a treatment method used for a variety of injuries and illnesses. Treatment may include massage, heat packs, cold packs, and exercise.
It is best to approach physical therapy with a positive attitude. A physical therapist will work with you to create a plan for therapy. Setting goals, both long-term and short-term, will help increase your motivation. Be realistic about whether your goals are achievable, and about how long it will take to reach each goal.
