Which physical therapy services are best for me?

The Spectrum Pain Management team determines which treatments are best suited for you after completing a physical exam, checking your vital signs, weighing you, and reviewing your medical history. They ask about your medications, symptoms, lifestyle, and more.

Some patients need diagnostic tests, such as blood tests, X-rays, an MRI, a CT scan, or additional imaging procedures to determine which stretches and exercises are the safest.
