Think You Know Physical Therapy? THINK AGAIN.
For more than 25 years, Lifeline Physical Therapy has helped individuals and families throughout the Pittsburgh region recover from injuries, stay active, and move with confidence. With eight convenient locations, next-day appointments, and no physician referral required, getting expert care has never been easier.
Today, physical therapy is just as much about preventing injuries as it is about recovering from them. The Lifeline team addresses this topic and other questions …
Q: Isn’ t physical therapy just for injuries?
No, this is a common misconception. While we help patients recover from injuries and surgery every day, we also help people stay active, move better, prevent injuries and reduce pain.
Q: What’ s something people are surprised to learn?
Two things. First, you don’ t need a physician referral to see a physical therapist in Pennsylvania. Second, you don’ t have to wait weeks for care. We can often see new patients within 24 hours, helping them get answers— and relief— sooner.
Q: How has physical therapy changed?
Today, physical therapy is just as much about prevention as it is recovery. We help people improve strength, balance, mobility and movement, so they can stay active and avoid future injuries. For those who want to take a proactive approach to their health, we also offer an annual physical therapy exam.
