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

What is a Physical Therapist?

A Physical Therapist (PT), like Dr. Aylee DPT, is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement. They help improve your quality of life by providing 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. Aylee DPT 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, like with chronic back pain, rotator cuff tears, or knee osteoarthritis, can be just as effective as surgery in reducing pain and improving function. It's a powerful, non-invasive first step that may prevent the need for more invasive procedures.

How can physical therapy help after a stroke?

Dr. Aylee DPT's physical therapy focuses on helping stroke survivors regain lost function. Through specific, repetitive exercises, we encourage neuroplasticity, which helps the brain rewire itself. This leads to improvements in walking, balance, and strength, ultimately maximizing independence and preventing falls.

How does physical therapy help prevent injuries?

Dr. Aylee DPT can perform a functional movement screen to identify muscle imbalances, weakness, or poor movement patterns that could lead to injury. A personalized exercise program can then be created to correct these issues, proactively preventing future problems.

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

Pre-operative physical therapy, or "prehab," can strengthen muscles before surgery, speeding up 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. We work closely with your surgeon to create a personalized plan.

What is the goal of a home exercise program?

Dr. Aylee DPT's home exercise program is a crucial part of your recovery. It's a personalized set of exercises designed to help you continue improving between sessions and prevent the problem from returning after therapy. This empowers you to maintain your progress and achieve lasting results.

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