A basic fact of life is that we all live extremely busy lives. From work, to family, and everything in between, there is always something that needs to be done. With that time crunch, our experience with our patients is that our health usually takes a back seat, because we always think, “I’ll deal with that tomorrow.” But there are just some things that shouldn’t wait until tomorrow, especially when dealing with back pain.
Have you ever disregarded your dizziness symptoms, thinking that they’ll just go away on their own? We have had so many patients make that mistake.

Low back pain patients who underwent early physical therapy reportedly had better outcomes than those who did not. Early physical therapy was also more cost-effective, according to researchers.
In the study, published recently in the journal Spine, researchers studied the effect of early physical therapy on 220 patients with low back pain, with respect to both outcomes and costs.

When a patient comes in for sciatica physical therapy in the Elizabeth or Jersey City clinics, we always give each patient a personalized home exercise program.

But many patients often have the same, burning questions:
How often should I do my exercises? And do I need to do them forever?
Pain can be a problem for every aspect of our lives, especially when it comes to working. For Tracy, after we had helped her previously with terrible knee pain, she knew that the only way to get rid of her current shoulder pain was to get back into the office for physical therapy again.

When it comes to back pain, I always let my physical therapy patients know that treatment may be an ongoing thing. We can always help you get back from injury, but once you get back out on your own, there is always a chance for re-injury, which means you may need to come back for physical therapy.

Although it is definitely an option, many people don’t realize that physical therapy can be a way to avoid having to go through surgery altogether. The pain relief and movement benefits that physical therapy can provide gives patients a proven method of improving your quality of life so that you may not have to undergo surgery.
