Could you tell me what are some chronic problems and epidemics that a physical therapist can address ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Back Pain: 80% of americans will experience severe back pain that interrupts work at some point in their lives. Learning muscle techniques for strength, flexibility and balance from a therapist will help with the epidemic of pain (25% of americans suffer chronic pain). Back pain is often a problem when young and vigorous; later on, posture problems and falls are epidemic for seniors.
