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

What is a Physical Therapist?

A Physical Therapist (PT) is a licensed healthcare professional specializing in movement. They help improve 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. Froiseth will be a comprehensive evaluation. 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.

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. Justin Froiseth's practice can strengthen the muscles around the joint, improve flexibility, and significantly reduce pain, helping to prevent disability and maintain an active life.

How does physical therapy help prevent injuries?

Dr. Froiseth's physical therapy helps prevent injuries by identifying muscle imbalances, weakness, or poor movement patterns through a functional movement screen. A personalized exercise program is then created to correct these issues, proactively reducing your risk of future problems.

How does physical therapy help with chronic back pain?

Dr. Froiseth's physical therapy approach for chronic back pain goes beyond temporary relief. We focus on identifying the root cause and creating a personalized program including core strengthening, flexibility exercises, and education on proper posture and body mechanics to prevent future episodes. This empowers you to take control of your back health.

What is the goal of a home exercise program?

Dr. Froiseth's home exercise program is crucial for continued progress and preventing future issues. It's a personalized set of exercises designed to help you maintain gains between sessions and achieve long-term recovery. This program empowers you to take an active role in your healing journey.
