October is National Physical Therapy Month!  Many people don’t really understand physical therapy, which is why those of us in this profession need to do a better job at spreading the word.  The goal of physical therapy is to decrease limitations and optimize function.  Treatment often includes a combination of exercise and manual treatment and can address anything from vertigo to incontinence,  In Illinois, you can be evaluated by a physical therapist without a prescription which allows for faster rehabilitation and reduced healthcare costs.  Please tell your friends and family to try PT first and help them feel better faster!
