Physical Therapy

What Is Physical Therapy?

One of the allied health professions is physical therapy (PT), commonly called physiotherapy in the medical world. It is usually given by physical therapists who use physical examination, diagnosis, management, prognosis, patient education, physical intervention, rehabilitation, disease prevention, and health promotion to promote, maintain, or restore health. In the majority of first-world and larger nations, physical therapists are referred to as physiotherapists.

Physical therapists work with patients to develop fitness- and wellness-oriented programs for healthier, more active lifestyles, preventing the loss of mobility before it happens. These are mainly for individuals and populations to develop, maintain, and restore maximum movement and functional ability.

Testimonials

After I had surgery on my hip, finding a physical therapist through my primary care physician was taking a while. After 2 weeks of waiting for a referral, I called Tristar and they sent a physical therapist to me the next day.

My medical knowledge is not the best. Therefore I searched for someone that could help better educate myself. Once I came across Tristar and called them, they sent me a medical social worker that helped my family and I better understand the care that I needed and the treatment plan that needed to be put in place. I am very fortunate to have called Tristar.

I was in desperate need of a home health aide after my surgery. I was not able to do the normal chores around my house as I used to. The home health aide that came from Tristar helped me beyond words. I thank the team at Tristar for quickly catering to my needs.
