Fitness Therapy vs Physical Therapy

Fitness therapy is not the same as physical therapy. Both are critical within the rehab system to maximize patient recovery but differ in purpose and philosophy.

Physical therapy focuses on injury and works to rehabilitate your return to pre-accident or illness function. After your injury heals, you are discharged from physical therapy.

Fitness therapy focuses on total body health & wellness. You receive conditioning for your entire body, not just injuries. This focus on long-term recovery prepares you to function more independently and stay active after being discharged from physical therapy.

A fitness therapist educates you about body mechanics, exercises, advancing exercises to make them more challenging, and healthy lifestyle habits. The aim is continuous progression, relapse avoidance, and staying out of the hospital.
