Is mobile physical therapy the right solution for you? At Purpose Physical Therapy, our goal is simple: to help our patients achieve the highest possible quality of life. That goes beyond doing strength and mobility training – it also includes making sure you’re able to undergo treatment in the setting that is most convenient and comfortable for you. If you’ve struggled to get the balance right between physical therapy and other obligations, our mobile approach could be well-suited to your needs. Today, we’re examining the signs that mobile physical therapy is a beneficial option for your lifestyle.
What is Mobile Physical Therapy?
Mobile physical therapy is a relatively new approach to care. Under this model, your physical therapist comes to a location of your choosing, and they bring all of the equipment and tools required to give you an effective session. Unlike traditional physical therapy, which requires the patient to come to their physical therapist’s office for every section, mobile physical therapy offers a more flexible, adaptable approach that’s perfect for individuals with busy schedules.
We’re not here to tell you that mobile physical therapy is the best option for you – the truth is that only you can decide that. Now that you know the basics of mobile physical therapy, it’s worthwhile to cross-reference its benefits with your needs in order to determine whether it’s something you should try out. Generally speaking, mobile physical therapy is a great option if you:
- Work long or irregular hours
- Have ongoing after-hours commitments, like children’s sports or organization membership, that make it difficult to add another commute into the mix
- Feel more comfortable exercising in a space of your choosing
Our Concierge Approach, Explained
At Purpose Physical Therapy and Wellness, our mission is right in our name: our goal is not only to alleviate pain and improve mobility, but to encourage holistic wellness that lasts long term. We pursue this with customized physical therapy plans that are built to evolve and grow as you do. Rather than just focusing on one injury or body part, we integrate your targeted treatment into a whole-body approach that will improve your overall fitness and movement both short-term and in the future.
What to Expect from Your Care
Every practice approaches mobile physical therapy differently, and our emphasis is on turning the spaces you choose into environments that are just as effective for your treatment as a doctor’s office would be. Dr. Ken Clark comes equipped with all of the tools you’ll need for a great session that’s tailored to your unique goals. The aim of each session is to boost mindfulness and promote a mind-body connection that enables you to listen to what your body is telling you. We’re not here to put you through workouts and call it a day; we’re here to listen and learn alongside you, creating treatment plans that prioritize your mental and physical health as they evolve over time.
If you’re interested in mobile physical therapy and want to learn more about this approach to treatment, we’d be happy to help. Don’t hesitate to schedule an initial evaluation with us (or, if you’re not quite ready for that step, to give us a call).
