What is Physical Therapy?

The goal of physical therapy (PT) is to restore, maintain, and promote optimal physical function and mobility for our Denver and Lakewood patients.

Physical therapy treatment generally involves a personalized blend of therapeutic exercise and manual therapy. Physical therapists, like Accelerate Health’s Dr. Justin Lowder, work with patients across a wide range of ages and health conditions to help individuals improve their movement, manage pain, and prevent or recover from injuries or disabilities.

What Does Physical Therapy Do?

Physical therapy treatments can be designed to address many needs and conditions, including:

  • Pain Management: Physical therapists employ various techniques to manage and alleviate pain. This may involve hands-on manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, modalities like heat or cold therapy, and other approaches aimed at reducing pain and improving function.

  • Mobility and Function Improvement: Physical therapy aims to restore and enhance a person's ability to move and perform daily activities. Therapeutic exercises and functional training help improve strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, and overall mobility.

  • Disability and Injury Prevention: Physical therapists play a crucial role in educating patients about their conditions and providing guidance on injury prevention. They may teach proper body mechanics, ergonomics, and home exercise programs to help patients to manage health and prevent future issues.

  • Post-surgical Rehabilitation: Physical therapy is often a key component of rehabilitation after surgeries, injuries, or medical procedures. It helps individuals regain strength, mobility, and independence, facilitating a smoother recovery process.

By developing and implementing a personalized physical therapy treatment plan, Accelerate Health can help you to feel your best again, so you can get back to the active life you love.
