To get the most out of physical therapy, it’s important that you adequately prepare. Please be sure to bring any medical records including your prescription medication list and any x-ray or MRI reports related to the condition that your physical therapist will be evaluating. Please also provide any medical prescriptions or referrals for physical therapy provided by your referring physician.

It’s also important to discuss your goals for treatment. Tell your physical therapist what you hope to achieve at the conclusion of your physical therapy plan of care.
