What is Physical Therapy?

• Physical Therapy is considered a conservative treatment method addressing the treatment, healing, and prevention of injuries and disabilities.
• Physical Therapy focuses primarily, but not solely, on pain relief, promoting healing, and restoring function and movement associated with injury. Other areas within Physical Therapy are ergonomic (body mechanics) training, fitness/wellness, and, especially, education and prevention.

How long is it going to take?

• Each person that comes into our office is unique and, therefore, rates of healing are also unique. Stephanie can usually get an idea of your progress within two weeks.
• Please keep in mind that although rehabilitation takes time, it also took time for an injury to progress to its present state of discomfort.

What will I expect during a Physical Therapy treatment?

• Physical Therapy generally encompasses assistance in pain management such as: hands on therapy, traction, strength and flexibility training, regaining range of motion, improving and correcting posture, endurance training, balance and coordination training, proper walking, education, and safety awareness. Stephanie will work with patients to develop and implement a home exercise program within their treatment.
• Physical Therapy will work to restore function, improve mobility, and educate patients on how to maintain and promote overall physical fitness and health.
• Considering everyone is different, each physical therapy experience and program is different. Be patient with yourself, your Physical Therapist, and your Physician. Healing takes time, diligence, and compliance.

Most common diagnoses we treat:

The most common diagnoses for which we provide treatment are:

• "On my first visit, I was in so much pain I could hardly walk and I couldn’t even sit for very long. I felt a lot of stress, no energy, no motivation to have a active life (no sports, no housework, no yard work); I could not stand up for very long at all. My pain -all over my body- was a 10+ on a 1-10 scale. That was before my first treatment."
  
  "Now my pain is 0, I can breathe better, I can spend time sitting, walking, going shopping, carrying my groceries, and the stress from being in pain is gone. I feel I have the energy to do anything. I also move with more freedom and a lot of confidence in my self. Thanks to God and thanks to you. I did finish this treatment and now have my normal life back."

• "R & R Physical Therapy, let me begin by saying thank you for the service of Therapist, Stephanie Dunn and her assistant, Chrissy Gecosala. My care in the hands of these two women has enabled me to move about with much ease and my pain has been removed. Thanks for everyone at the 22nd street office. From the 1st time I walked in, I felt the warmth of people that could and would help me recover. Many more thanks than words can express."
