Physical Therapy + Chiropractic Care = Pain Management
Physical therapy (PT) and chiropractic care offer different methods to healing but, when combined, can work together for the ultimate benefits in rehabilitation and pain management. Whether injured in an auto accident or suffering from unaddressed discomfort, PT shares similar goals with chiropractic care. Combining both treatments together allows for optimal healing. Think of them as best friends with balanced strengths. Chiropractic care gets to the root of the problem; physical therapy helps train the body to combat the problem.
Why combine physical therapy treatments with chiropractic care?
Though physical therapy and chiropractic care have similarities, there are differences unique to each practice. Chiropractic care targets the skeletal spine, making sure your back is in proper alignment. Physical therapy deals more with muscle and joint support. If your spine is out of alignment, issues will occur throughout the body, causing pain. On the flip side, poor muscle tone, improper body movements, or damage to ligaments can also be a factor with the pain someone experiences. Working with a chiropractor who specializes in spinal structure while also receiving physical therapy allows for the greatest overall support.
Who can physical therapy and chiropractic care help?
There are many reasons to seek help from a PT and chiropractic team.
- Sports Injury
- Involved in an auto accident
- Generalized pain
- Corrective Care
- Arthritis
- Poor Posture
Those who have dealt with these or other issues causing pain can receive help with a combined care plan utilizing chiropractic and physical therapy. When you can find both practices in one place or a team that works hand-in-hand, the benefits are even more significant.
