What Is Physical/Occupational Therapy and Why It Matters

Physical and Occupational Therapy focuses on improving strength, flexibility, and coordination while supporting daily independence. Through customized treatment plans, patients learn how to move safely and perform essential activities with greater ease. Each session is adapted to the client’s unique goals, whether recovering from surgery, managing a chronic condition, or preventing mobility decline.

Who Can Benefit from Physical/Occupational Therapy

These therapy services are designed for individuals recovering from medical events or adjusting to physical limitations. Beneficiaries often include:

  • Those recovering from surgery or injury
  • Individuals managing arthritis, stroke, or Parkinson’s disease
  • Seniors experiencing balance or mobility issues
  • Patients adjusting to life with prosthetics or mobility aids
  • Individuals seeking pain management or improved physical endurance

How It Works

After an initial assessment, a licensed therapist develops a care plan that aligns with the patient’s condition and recovery goals. Each visit may include exercises, stretching, pain management strategies, and activities to rebuild strength and function. Occupational therapy may focus on re-learning daily routines such as dressing, bathing, and meal preparation, while physical therapy emphasizes improving movement, endurance, and stability.
