Regular attendance is key for the best results.

What can I do at home to supplement my physical therapy?

How can I measure my progress in physical therapy?
Progress in physical therapy can be measured in different ways, including a reduction in pain, increased range of motion, improved strength, and the ability to return to daily activities or sports. Your physical therapist will help you track your progress over time.

How long will it take for me to see results from physical therapy?
The timeline for seeing results from physical therapy varies based on the nature and severity of your condition, as well as your adherence to the therapy program. Some patients may see improvements in a few weeks, while others with more severe conditions may require several months of therapy.

What should I wear to my physical therapy sessions?
Wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy movement and gives your therapist access to the area of your body being treated. If you're coming for a knee problem, for example, it's best to wear shorts. For a shoulder issue, a tank top is a good choice. Also, wear suitable footwear, such as athletic shoes.
