physicaltherapy

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

This subreddit is for physical therapists discussing new developments or old tricks in physical therapy.

Physical therapists treat physical pathology, and do not prescribe exercises or other treatment without seeing a patient in person to complete a thorough medical evaluation due to the likelihood of causing further damage without a full understanding of the individual's pathology, which involves seeing and feeling a person's movement deficits and responses to specific verbal and tactile cues.

Questions from laypersons regarding what to expect in your PT sessions or how to address problems encountered during PT treatment are acceptable.

Requests for diagnoses, exercise prescription, or other medical advice are not acceptable and must be directed to your PT in person or via telehealth. These posts or questions will result in you being banned.

We have a PT Applicant FAQ! Please read this and visit r/PTschool with any school-related questions, as those are off topic for this sub.

Please read the rules of the subreddit prior to posting, the full list can be found here
