What is Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation?
Physical medicine and rehabilitation, or physiatry, is not just about treating injuries; it’s about restoring lives. At Americana Injury Clinic, we see beyond the injury to the individual’s journey towards regaining their strength, flexibility, and independence. Our physiatrists and physical therapists work in tandem, using a blend of traditional methods and cutting-edge techniques to tailor a recovery plan just for you.
The Role of Physical Therapists in Rehabilitation
At the heart of our clinic are our physical therapists, the unsung heroes of rehabilitation. They’re not just therapists; they’re your cheerleaders, guides, and educators throughout your recovery journey. Collaborating closely with other healthcare professionals, ensure your care is comprehensive, cohesive, and, most importantly, effective.
