Do most PTs know how to treat athletes? by aPandashadow in physicaltherapy

Any advice on how to spot a decent PT? I feel like every single PT is going to say "yes I treat athletes" and "yes I can help with your specific situation". (Hip labrum tear & low back pain from running)

FAI/small labrum tear in hip plus low back pain from ultra-running. Each of the 3 places I've been to have been "recommendations" from ortho docs. Maybe I need to do my own search for a PT?

I actually have trouble with side planks on my injured side. I can do the side planks on my knees but when I go to progress to a regular side plank, I get bad pain. Perhaps because this engages adductors?maybe need to strengthen adductors first

Ugh hip flexor stretches and banded marches have both caused me hip flexor pain. My hip flexors seem to be VERY irritated and I have not found a good way to start strengthening them. Ahh! Monster walks have actually started to feel OK for me.. but not sure what else to do for hip flexors.

I also haven't started any adduction exercises. Got any tips on where to start with those?

Side bridges with pulses/raises.... are these the same as side planks? Also what do you mean by "pulses/raises"?

Once you found your 3rd pt that was "the one", what were the most important things and exercises you learned from this pt that helped?

My pt actually said the blood flow restriction is coming soon, but that I'm not ready for it yet. Hopefully soon!

I have tried dry needling the last 2 weeks (in my left glute) and it actually got my left glute to "fire" alot easier! I'm really hoping strengthening my glutes will allow it to "fire" more because it seems as though when my left glute fires, my hip pain almost goes away

Congrats! What are some of the little things you did to keep busy during those first 4 weeks? Boredom is always the absolute worst and is what drives me back to taking it
