Here's a good article that summarizes pretty well what I think you should get when the relationship works well..

bfit, i think before you spend more money it's important to talk to someone about what your expectations are including the timing of the expectations. even a conversation simply identifying possible expectations is good. because there might be goals that PT cannot repair, or even traditional medical intervention. your comment about being able to run again - i wouldn't choose that as a near-term goal, for instance. i'm just an outsider recalling your previous posts about severe pain, and apologize in advance if i sounded out of line.

I am currently in Physical Therapy for my shoulder. I also had PT about 3 years ago for my knee (which turned out to be related to core weakness). I had 2 different therapists. I have had a really good experience both times. Here on some commonalities (most echoed in previous posts):
1. Both started with a longer appointment for an assessment of the issue. 2. Both are associated with a large teaching hospital. 3. Both were focused on me and no other patients during my appointment time. 4. Gave me a website links and paper handouts of the exercises. The website/app is nice to be able to see the exercises in motion. 5. Graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison PT school. 6. Gave me progressively more difficult exercises to do. |
