Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Physical Therapy care with Dr. Alyson Price:

What is a Physical Therapist?

A Physical Therapist (PT) is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement and improving quality of life. They provide hands-on care, education, and exercises to prevent injuries, manage pain, and restore function after illness or surgery.

What should I expect during my first physical therapy evaluation?

Your first visit with Dr. Alyson Price will be a comprehensive assessment. We will discuss your medical history and goals, followed by a physical evaluation of your posture, movement, strength, and flexibility. This is the starting point for creating a completely personalized prevention and recovery plan.

Can physical therapy help me avoid surgery?

Yes, in many cases. Physical therapy can be as effective as surgery for conditions like chronic back pain, rotator cuff tears, or knee osteoarthritis. It's a powerful, non-invasive first step to reduce pain and improve function, potentially preventing the need for more invasive procedures.

How can physical therapy help after a stroke?

Dr. Price's physical therapy program focuses on restoring neurological function after stroke. We utilize specific, repetitive exercises to encourage neuroplasticity, helping the brain rewire and regain lost abilities. The goal is to improve walking, balance, and strength, maximizing independence and reducing fall risk.

What is pelvic floor physical therapy?

Pelvic floor physical therapy, provided by Dr. Alyson Price, focuses on the muscles of the pelvic floor. It's a highly effective, non-surgical treatment for conditions like urinary incontinence, pelvic pain, and issues related to pregnancy and postpartum recovery, benefiting both men and women.

My child seems clumsy or behind in motor skills. Can PT help?

Dr. Alyson Price and our pediatric physical therapists are experts in child development. We can perform a thorough developmental screening to identify any areas of concern and create a fun, play-based therapy program to help your child build strength, coordination, and confidence.

How does physical therapy help prevent injuries?

Dr. Alyson Price's physical therapy helps prevent injuries by identifying muscle imbalances, weakness, or poor movement patterns through a functional movement screen. A personalized exercise program can then be created to correct these issues before they lead to problems.

I'm having joint replacement surgery. When should I start PT?

Pre-operative physical therapy, or "prehab," strengthens muscles to speed recovery. Post-operative therapy, starting soon after surgery, is critical to restoring range of motion, building strength, and optimizing your new joint's function. Dr. Price and her team will work with you to develop a personalized plan for both phases of your recovery.
