Physical Therapists are the one profession who has spent over 100 years studying the bio-mechanics, anatomy, physiology, and mechanisms that affect the way our bodies move, respond to injuries, and react to pain. As Physical Therapists, we have dedicated our lives to treating pain and injuries of the human body through exercise, hands on techniques, and movement performance without the reliance upon medications to mask symptoms or invasive surgeries that may be prevented.

A Physical Therapist should be your FIRST call when you experience pain or an injury. Let them do an EVALUATION to find the root CAUSE of your symptoms, assess your condition, and discover the cause of your pain through a hands on and movement based evaluation. From there, they can determine the best course of treatment for you; whether that means being treated by the Physical Therapist or being referred out to another medical professional or specialist.

If you do find yourself needing surgical intervention, your local Physical Therapist can help guide and instruct you through to pre and post surgical process.

Hip and knee replacement surgeries are some of the most common operations performed in the U.S., with about 1 million completed each year. And each one of these patients share one thing in common: their desire to get back to the level of work, play and function they enjoyed before first experiencing joint pain. The physical therapy team at Next Generation can get them there.

Working with a physical therapist before these and other surgeries can vastly improve your strength, education and confidence going into such a major procedure. In turn, these “prehabilitation” efforts can improve the speed, success and cost of your rehabilitation experience post-surgery, getting you back to doing the things you love – free of pain.
