Furthermore, the physicians and physical therapists at Icon Medical Centers assist individuals who have chronic medical conditions that affect their mobility and/or cause them pain.

The Goal of Physical Therapy

Physical therapy sessions help individuals strengthen the parts of their bodies that are injured. Physical therapy also improves or restores their range of motion. In addition, therapy can assist with pain management, prevent permanent damage and avoid recurring problems. At Icon Medical Centers in Miami, our physicians and physical therapists work together to create each of our patients a custom physical therapy program. The goal of each customized physical therapy treatment plan is to assist our patients in returning to their daily activities free of pain and with an improved range of motion.

The Role of the Physical Therapist

Our physical therapists are dedicated to assisting patients as they recover from their injuries, from surgery or as they receive treatment for a condition that affects an individual’s mobility. Each of the therapists at Icon Medical Centers in Miami has the skills, experience, and compassion necessary to provide patients with the exceptional care they need. Our therapists teach our patients the stretches, exercises, and techniques that will help them as they recover from an injury or as they receive treatment for a chronic medical condition.

Benefits of a Customized Physical Therapy Program

Each of our patients is unique, which is why we create a physical therapy program that is designed to meet his or her specific needs. By tailoring physical therapy programs for each specific patient, we can assist them as they work toward regaining their previous level of functionality. Moreover, physical therapy sessions encourage patients to maintain an active lifestyle, which can prevent further injury, help him or her remain mobile as well as improve an individual’s overall health and well-being.

Maintaining Mobility is Vital to Remaining Independent

Without mobility, it is almost impossible to remain independent. In fact, implementing just a walking routine can substantially decrease the risk of having a heart attack or a stroke. Furthermore, walking regularly keeps the leg muscles strong; thus, reducing the risk of a fall. Remaining active also helps prevent obesity. The American Journal of Public Health states that among Americans who are 45 to 64 years of age, at least 20 percent of deaths are linked to obesity. Hence, the prevention of obesity is crucial.

Physical Therapy is Considered a Conservative Approach

Many times, at the first sign of an issue, primary care physicians refer patients to Icon Medical Centers in Miami for physical therapy.
