What should I know about physical therapy?

Physical therapy at Victory Therapy & Wellness is a safe, effective, hands-on approach to relieving pain and restoring function. Physical therapists in Swainsboro are medical experts in musculoskeletal and neurological conditions and work closely with physicians. Your physician may even refer you to a physical therapist!

Victory Therapy & Wellness physical therapists are skilled in evaluating your movement patterns to identify the cause of your pain. Their goal with your treatment is to work to eliminate your pain symptoms entirely.

Since every patient’s condition and pain is unique, the physical therapist’s at Victory Therapy & Wellness will use a variety of gentle hands-on techniques, exercises, and possibly even specialized equipment to relieve pain quickly, and restore your function to optimum levels.

At the end of the day, it’s important to remember that the overall goal of your physical therapy treatment is to restore pain-free mobility and function and to prevent the injury or pain from recurring. Your therapist will always make sure you leave each appointment in better condition than you arrived in!

Do PT treatments hurt?

Physical therapy is not meant to hurt you, but to relieve your pain. However, it’s imperative to note that as you restore your mobility, there may be times where your pain levels will fluctuate. This is part of the healing and recovery process. You might experience some temporary soreness from using muscles that are weakened or recovering.

This is a normal response to therapy treatment. Let your therapist know if you’re uncomfortable for any reason! Good communication with your therapist will help minimize any discomfort. We want you on your way to quick pain relief and back to normal activities.

Do I need to wear certain types of clothes for my appointments?

It’s a good idea to dress comfortably with clothes that allow easy access for the therapist to examine your problem areas.

For therapy treatments, loose fitting clothes that are comfortable for gentle exercises and supportive sneakers are often good choices to wear to your appointments.

How long until I notice relief?

There is no set time when it comes to finding relief. Each patient’s diagnosis and pain levels are different, so together with your referring physician, your therapist will develop a plan of care that is right for you.
