Many people who live with pain seek help from physical therapists and other rehabilitation professionals to help them get back to their once active lifestyles. Rehabilitation can be an option whether you have spine surgery or not.
Depending on your particular issue, a physician may prescribe therapy to:
-
measure your functional ability
-
improve your strength, mobility, endurance, coordination or balance
-
or decrease pain, swelling and inflammation
By implementing a customized care plan, therapists might be able to reduce or even eliminate the pain you experience.
