It depends on your diagnosis and your doctor. Like any prescription it should be specific as to the diagnosis, the recommended treatment, the frequency and duration. If it's an acute problem that needs closer monitoring your script may be good for 4-6 weeks or less so that you can be re-evaluated sooner. For a more stable or chronic problem you may get a script good for 2-3 months. Sometimes you may just get a script for short term therapy of a few sessions for instructional purposes for someone who can be independent enough to be on their own. As always, your particular insurance coverage plays a big part.

A bachelor's degree in physical therapy typically takes four years to complete. However, it's important to note that as of now, most physical therapy programs require a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree for licensure, which usually involves an additional three years of graduate study after completing a bachelor's degree. Therefore, the total educational commitment can range from seven to eight years.

It depends on what therapy the cat is going to work most with. Here is the 3rd reason, in the link I've added below, for cats being good therapy animals: 3. Petting or brushing long hair cats can be great physical therapy for individuals with muscle disorders. Recently, long hair cats have been used with patients suffering from muscle conditions.

Yes, massage therapy can complement physical therapy. While physical therapy primarily focuses on restoring mobility, strength, and functional movement, massage therapy helps by reducing muscle tension, improving circulation, and promoting relaxation. When used together, the two approaches can speed up recovery, ease pain, and support long-term wellness. From a practitioner's perspective, having the right treatment equipment plays an important role in delivering these therapies effectively. A well-designed physical therapy treatment table not only provides comfort and proper positioning for patients but also allows therapists to seamlessly combine manual therapy techniques, massage, and rehabilitative exercises in one session. At Elite Chiro Tables, we understand that physical therapy and massage therapy often go hand in hand. That's why our tables are built to support both modalities, giving professionals the flexibility to integrate massage techniques into physical therapy sessions and ultimately enhance patient outcomes.
