Nature of Physical Therapy
I understand that physical therapy is a healthcare service intended to assess and improve movement, strength, function, and overall physical well-being. Physical therapy services may include, but are not limited to:

- Use of heat, cold, or other non-invasive modalities when clinically appropriate
I understand that physical therapy may require active participation and that progress depends in part on my attendance, effort, and follow-through with recommendations.
