Question: What should I wear to my physical therapy appointment?
Answer: It’s best to wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the area being treated. For example, shorts are ideal for knee or hip issues, and a tank top or loose shirt works well for shoulder or neck problems. This helps the therapist perform a thorough assessment and provide effective treatment.
Question: How long does a typical physical therapy session last?
Answer: Most sessions at our practice last between 45 minutes to an hour, depending on the treatment plan and your specific needs. The initial evaluation may take a bit longer to ensure we fully understand your condition and establish the right course of care.
