Physical Therapy is administered by a Licensed Physical Therapist (LPT) or a physical therapy assistant (PTA). Physical therapy (PT) can be both passive and active. Passive therapies involve the application of ice/heat or electrical modalities to reduce pain and muscle spasm. Active physical therapy may consist of stretches for tight joints or strengthening exercises for weak muscles. Your therapist may also review proper body mechanics to help prevent reinjury.
