What is a physical therapist?

A physical therapist is a healthcare professional who helps patients recover from injuries, manage chronic conditions, and improve mobility, strength, and overall physical function. They use a variety of techniques, such as exercise, manual therapy, and assistive devices, to help patients achieve their goals. Physical therapists work with individuals of all ages and abilities, from newborns to the elderly, and from those with acute injuries to those with long-term disabilities. They often work as part of a team with other healthcare providers, such as doctors and nurses, to develop a comprehensive treatment plan for each patient.

We have a physical therapy department at Countryside Neurology. Here, our physical therapists work with our clinicians as part of a team to better help our patients.
