October is National Physical Therapy Month 🏋️♀️💪
And since most people still think PTs only help you after an injury… let’s clear a few things up 👇
5 things most people don’t know about physical therapists (especially the kind you’ll find at OFF THE BLOCK):
1️⃣ You don’t need a referral to see us. In South Carolina, you can book directly—no waiting on a doctor’s note or a script to start feeling better.
2️⃣ We’re movement experts, not just “rehab people.” We don’t just fix pain—we optimize strength, mobility, and performance so you can keep doing what you love, for longer.
3️⃣ Preventative care is part of what we do. Just like you see your dentist before a cavity or your coach before a game, you can (and should) see your PT before pain or injury shows up.
4️⃣ We’re not limited by insurance red tape. Our cash-based model means you and your goals decide what care looks like—not an adjuster who’s never seen you move.
5️⃣ We bridge the gap between healthcare and performance. Whether you’re lifting, running, training, or chasing your kids—we help you move better, recover faster, and stay stronger.
This month, we’re celebrating the profession that helps you heal, rise, and grind every single day.
