Maximize Your Movement
Pain-free movement is crucial to your quality of life, your ability to earn a living, and your independence. Physical Therapists are movement experts who can identify, diagnose, and treat movement problems. At CardioFlex, we’ve developed several Specialized Programs for injuries and conditions related to Physical Therapy.
Participate In Your Recovery
Physical therapists work collaboratively with their patients and clients. Treatment plans are designed for each person’s individual goals, challenges, and needs. Your Physical Therapist knows exactly what movements benefit you most, follow their instructions and repeat at home as directed.
Avoid Opioids
Opioid risks include depression, overdose, and addiction, plus withdrawal symptoms when stopping use. In some situations, dosed appropriately, prescription opioids are an appropriate part of medical treatment. However, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is urging health care providers to reduce the use of opioids in favor of safe alternatives like physical therapy for most long-term pain.
Avoid Surgery
Before you undergo expensive or invasive surgery, try physical therapy.
