Manassas Physical Therapy What you don’t know might hurt you!!
Manassas Physical Therapy for the spine after an automobile or work accident may not be the best place to start, however, after an Accident, patients with neck and back pain are often shuffled through the American medical system. Trauma patients are being referred to Manassas Physical Therapy. These patients often do not receive a thorough neuro-musculo-skeletal evaluation, therefore not fully diagnosed.
Automobile accident patients are triaged out of the emergency department. You will not be in the hospital for long. Trauma providers have the goal to STABILIZE you. Emergency Department providers may refer you to either Manassas Physical Therapy or another provider. Trauma providers will triage you out of the emergency department.
Visiting your primary doctor, most likely you will get a cursory once-over followed by a prescription for muscle relaxers. Primary care physicians do not want these cases, also many doctors do not accept accident patients. Call us instead! We can help.
Orthopedic Surgeons Operate on Bone; Tumors, Fractures, and Infections.
Your family doctor may refer you to an ORTHOPEDIST, and so you go to the Orthopedist appointment, furthermore, when you arrive, you never see the actual Orthopedist. Instead, you see his Physician Assistant because the Orthopedist is in the operating room. The Physician Assistant is screening you to see if you need surgery. If The PA determines you are not a surgical candidate, hence he may send you to Manassas Physical Therapy clinic….
OR perhaps your primary care sent you to the physical therapist for neck and back pain directly by passing the orthopedist referral. OR, worse yet, the doctor sent you home to rest with pills only, however bed rest can make your condition worse!
This is where a problem exists with these patients. YOU NEED TO CALL US INSTEAD!!
The Manassas Physical Therapy Therapist may be great at getting rid of your symptoms. Research shows that for SPINE, physical therapists do not provide the best result. Combining therapy with Chiropractic adjustments demonstrates the best results FOR SPINE according to research. Physical Therapists are NOT TRAINED OR QUALIFIED to properly; diagnose, examine, or to order the appropriate medical diagnostic tests. You need a Trauma – Trained Doctor to determine what is going on with you!!!

DON’T GET ME WRONG, I LOVE PHYSICAL THERAPY! Also, I Love Physical Therapists!
I am NOT Bashing Manassas Physical Therapy. Physical Therapists do AMAZING WORK! PT’s have treated and helped me personally. Physical therapists are not trained in; spinal trauma, therefore, physical therapists cannot determine if the patient is in danger of greater injury. Family physicians do not like treating; trauma, back and neck pains. Most Primary Care Physicians and Physical Therapists do not have training to personally read and interpret your Spinal MRI! http://www.uschirodirectory.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=758:chiropractic-vs-medicine-who-is-more-cost-effective-renders-better-outcomes-for-spine&Itemid=320
This Physical Therapist claims you don’t NEED imaging to be seen by them! http://rinardpt.com/what-is-the-role-of-x-ray-and-mri-in-physical-therapy/
This advice is alarming to me and taken as read could cause considerable harm to patients, especially with the trauma case. This Physical Therapist does not know what he does not know, Also some Chiropractors and General Practitioners have the same belief as he does! This physical therapist believes that a proper diagnostic work-up does not include x-rays or MRI imaging. Physical therapists cannot order or interpret x-rays and MRI, therefore he states that x-rays and MRIs are not useful. X-rays and MRI ARE MOST USEFUL TO The Trauma-Trained Doctor and the PATIENT!! Call us Today at 703-396-7770!
The proper care of these patients must include a full diagnosis by a trauma-trained physician first. Your provider MUST have trauma training to diagnose and treat these conditions!!!
Even the Emergency Room physician is not going to completely fix you and here’s why: https://mychiropractormanassas.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=2001&action=edit
