October is National Physical Therapy Month

The American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) has dedicated October as National Physical Therapy Month. This nationally-recognized month began nearly thirty years ago. The goal is to educate individuals about the importance of physical therapy and inform about procedures, terms, and tips for recovery from injuries that are often the result of an untimely auto accident or a work accident.

The APTA recognizes that sometimes patients elect to try conservative forms of treatment rather than have surgery. My Douglasville law firm handles many injury cases and a vast majority of our clients undergo various physical therapy programs to treat their orthopedic injuries. Physical therapists assist patients in exercises and procedures to alleviate pain and attempt to return the patient back to his or her normal life before the injury.

If you or somebody you know has been injured in a car wreck, truck accident or on-the-job, please call my workers’ compensation and serious injury law office for a free consultation. We are conveniently located outside Atlanta, Georgia and serve several counties, including Douglas County, Cobb County, and Carroll County.
