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

What is a Physical Therapist?

Dr. Jedryk PT is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement and improving quality of life. They provide hands-on care, education, and exercises to help 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. Jedryk PT will be a comprehensive assessment. We will discuss your medical history and goals, then perform a physical evaluation of your posture, movement, strength, and flexibility. This evaluation 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 often prevents the need for more invasive procedures.

What is 'manual therapy'?

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

What is dry needling?

Dry needling is a skilled technique where a physical therapist inserts a thin needle into a muscle "trigger point" to release tension and relieve pain. It's based on Western anatomy and physiology, unlike acupuncture, and can be a valuable tool to accelerate your recovery.

Yes, pediatric physical therapists are experts in child development. Dr. Jedryk PT can perform a developmental screening to identify any delays and create a play-based therapy program to help your child build strength, coordination, and confidence.

I have arthritis. Can physical therapy actually help?
