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

What is a Physical Therapist?

A Physical Therapist (PT) is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement and improving quality of life. They use 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. Busaba PT 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.

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

Yes, Dr. Busaba PT is an expert in child development. A developmental screening can identify any delays, and a fun, play-based therapy program can help build strength, coordination, and confidence.

What is 'manual therapy'?

Manual therapy is a hands-on approach used by physical therapists to address pain and improve movement. It includes techniques like joint mobilization and soft tissue mobilization to restore joint motion and reduce pain, ultimately preparing the body for exercise.

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

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

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

Pre-operative physical therapy, or "prehab," can strengthen muscles, improving your recovery time after surgery. Post-operative physical therapy is crucial, beginning soon after surgery, to restore range of motion, build strength, and optimize your new joint's function. Our experienced physical therapists at Dr. Busaba PT are here to guide you through every step of the process.

How can physical therapy help after a stroke?

Dr. Busaba PT helps stroke survivors regain lost function through targeted exercises that encourage the brain to rewire itself. These repetitive movements promote neuroplasticity, improving walking, balance, and strength. The goal is to maximize independence and minimize the risk of falls.
