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

    What is a Physical Therapist?
    A Physical Therapist (PT), like Dr. Ramon DPT, is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement. They use hands-on care, education, and exercises to improve your quality of life by preventing injuries, managing pain, and restoring function after illness or surgery.
    What should I expect during my first physical therapy evaluation?
    Your first visit with Dr. Ramon 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 does physical therapy help prevent injuries?
    Dr. Ramon DPT 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 correct these issues, proactively preventing future injuries.
    What is pelvic floor physical therapy?
    Pelvic floor physical therapy, offered by Dr. Ramon DPT, is a specialized area of physical therapy focusing 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.
    What is the goal of a home exercise program?
    Dr. Ramon DPT's home exercise program is a crucial part of your recovery. It's a personalized set of exercises designed to help you continue progress between sessions and prevent the problem from returning after therapy is complete. This empowers you to take an active role in your healing.
    I have pain at my desk job. Can you provide ergonomic advice?
    Yes, absolutely. Preventing workplace injuries is a key part of physical therapy. Dr. Ramon DPT can assess your workstation setup and provide expert ergonomic recommendations, as well as teach stretches and exercises to prevent repetitive strain injuries.
    I have arthritis. Can physical therapy actually help?
    Yes, physical therapy is a cornerstone of arthritis management. While it can't reverse arthritis, a targeted exercise program from Dr. Ramon DPT can strengthen the muscles around the joint, improve flexibility, and significantly reduce pain, helping to prevent disability and maintain an active life.
