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

What is a Physical Therapist?

A Physical Therapist (PT), like Dr. Jordan DPT, is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement and improving quality of life. They use hands-on care, education, and prescribed exercise 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. Jordan DPT will be a comprehensive evaluation. We'll discuss your medical history and goals, followed by a physical assessment of your posture, movement, strength, and flexibility. This is the starting point for creating a 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 more invasive procedures.

What is pelvic floor physical therapy?

Pelvic floor physical therapy, provided by Dr. Jordan DPT, 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.

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

Pre-operative physical therapy, or "prehab," can strengthen muscles before surgery, improving your recovery. Post-operative physical therapy is critical, starting soon after surgery, to restore range of motion, build strength, and optimize your new joint's function. Dr. Jordan DPT will work with you to develop a personalized plan for both phases.

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