No matter where you turn for advice on treatment for your pain, you'll surely find one common denominator - lots of confusing information and conflicting opinions. So when and why should you choose physical therapy? Most of today's health care professionals agree it's the best place to start for most aches and pains.
Research is now pouring in showing the benefits of physical therapy as part of a comprehensive treatment program for most "mechanical" musculoskeletal conditions. In fact, a February, 2007 article in the Journal of the American Heart Association quoted Harvard professor Elliott M. Antman, M.D. to say that, "We advise physicians to start with non-pharmacologic treatments such as physical therapy and exercise, weight loss to reduce stress on joints, and heat or cold therapy."
