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

What is a Physical Therapist?

A Physical Therapist (PT) is a licensed healthcare professional who specializes in movement and helps improve your quality of life. We use hands-on care, education, and prescribed exercise to prevent injuries, manage pain, and restore function after an illness or surgery.

What should I expect during my first physical therapy evaluation?

Your first visit with Dr. Bini PT will be a comprehensive evaluation. 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.

I feel dizzy and off-balance. Can a physical therapist help?

Yes, a physical therapist like Dr. Bini PT can help. Many physical therapists are specially trained in vestibular rehabilitation and can treat common causes of dizziness, such as BPPV, with specific head maneuvers. They can also improve balance through targeted exercises to prevent falls.

What is 'manual therapy'?

Manual therapy is a hands-on approach used by Dr. Bini PT to address pain and improve movement. It involves techniques like joint mobilization and soft tissue mobilization to restore joint motion and improve muscle function. This prepares the body for more effective therapeutic exercises.

How does physical therapy help prevent injuries?

Dr. Bini PT can perform a functional movement screen to identify potential injury risks, such as muscle imbalances or poor movement patterns. A personalized exercise program can then be created to strengthen these areas and prevent future injuries. This proactive approach helps keep you moving safely and comfortably.

How does physical therapy help with chronic back pain?

Dr. Bini PT's physical therapy for chronic back pain focuses on identifying the root cause and empowering you to prevent future episodes. A personalized program combining core strengthening, flexibility exercises, and education on proper posture and body mechanics will be developed. This approach aims for long-term pain management and improved overall well-being.

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

Prehabilitation, or pre-op physical therapy, strengthens muscles before surgery to speed recovery. Post-operative physical therapy is critical, starting soon after surgery, to restore range of motion, build strength, and ensure the best possible outcome from your new joint. Dr. Bini PT is here to guide you every step of the way.
