Physical Therapist Goals

Physical therapy is the medical science of using force and movement to remedy impairments, increase mobility, improve function and raise the quality of life.

The process of a physical therapist includes examination, diagnosis, prognosis and physical intervention. They seek to overcome dysfunctions of movement and decrease pain. They also focus on prevention of injury and promotion of well being.

Physical Therapy

Physical therapy healing is used for multiple purposes in a diverse variety of health-related industries but there are ultimately three main goals for every physical therapist; these are examine, diagnose and treat. The physical therapist will examine you and ask you questions.

After this they will offer you a diagnosis and then they will come up with a plan for treatment which may include manipulation of your joints and prescribing exercises.

Goals of Physical Therapy

• Any physical therapist’s ultimate goal is to treat the pain in a safe way.

• They work to improve the mobility and motion, resulting in pain-free movement.

• A physical therapist helps you to improve your physical activity and increase the quality of daily life thereby enabling you to pursue your leisure activities.

• They offer a healthy balanced system, day-by-day making you more physically independent.

• They offer a non-invasive alternative to drugs and surgery to treat injury and pain.

• Physical therapists work collaboratively with their patients to produce treatment plans that are specific to their challenges and needs.

• They use various techniques like exercises, massage therapy, joint manipulation, hot/cold therapy and electric stimulation to achieve the goal of restoring mobility and decreasing pain.

• They follow rehabilitation strategies with specific exercise to strengthen the muscles as well as to improve the posture and endurance. With the help of massage therapy and traction machines, they improve functionality and pain reduction.
