Do physical therapy treatments hurt?
Physical therapy is intended to relieve pain rather than aggravate it. However, as your mobility is restored, your pain levels may fluctuate. You may experience some discomfort as a result of using weakened or recovering muscles. Rest assured that this is a common side effect of physical therapy and should not be interpreted negatively.
Communication with our therapist will aid in the reduction of any discomfort you may experience during your physical therapy treatments. We want you to feel better and resume your normal activities as soon as possible.
