COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT PHYSICAL THERAPY

Physical therapy is frequently associated with sports injuries and post-surgical rehabilitation, but its reach goes well beyond these areas. Due to these perceptions, several misunderstandings exist about the true purpose, goals, and benefits of physical therapy. Read the full article to discover some of the most common misconceptions.

PHYSICAL THERAPY FOR MID BACK

Thoracic disc herniation refers to the misalignment of the protective cushion-like material located between spinal discs or spinal bones. This condition develops in the midback and often affects adults between the ages of 40 to 60 years old.

As the weather continues to cool down and people begin to spend more time indoors, the chances of spreading germs start to increase. Focus on boosting your immune system by staying hydrated, maintaining adequate vitamin and mineral intake (e.g., vitamin D, zinc), practicing good hygiene (e.g., frequent handwashing), and getting enough sleep.
