Physical Therapy Plus would like to assure you during these trying and uncertain times that we are taking every precaution and measure possible to ensure that you have a safe and clean environment to continue your physical therapy services. It is our goal and responsibility to ensure your health and safety while in our clinic.

Physical Therapy Plus, Inc. has always maintained a very well-kept facility. All surfaces and equipment are disinfected every day. We will continue our thoroughness and will add extra caution during this time with our cleaning and disinfecting techniques and are continually screening our new and current patients for any signs and symptoms of COVID-19.

We will continue to take every caution to protect you as well as our staff with thorough screening techniques for all staff members as well as each individual who enters Physical Therapy Plus, Inc.

If you believe you may be experiencing signs and symptoms of COVID-19 or have been in close contact with someone who has tested positive in the last 14 days, we respectfully ask that you call our office to reschedule your appointment for a later date.

We want to share a memorandum the US Department of Homeland Security issued on the list of essential infrastructure workers. It is our duty to continue to care for our patients' physical therapy needs during this time of crisis.

The guidance from the memorandum states that:

“If you work in a critical infrastructure industry, as defined by the Department of Homeland Security, such as healthcare services and pharmaceutical and food supply, you have a special responsibility to maintain your normal work schedule.”

“Physical therapists are essential in flattening the curve of the COVID-19 pandemic. They play a key role in keeping people they can help out of the doctor offices and ER’s. This will not only free up the medical teams to treat those impacted by COVID-19, but also limit the exposure of those seeking the care of the physical therapist”.

If you have any questions, please contact our office at 719-336-4364 and we will be happy to address any concerns you may have. Thank you for trusting Physical Therapy Plus with your care and we look forward to hearing from you.

Why Not Physical Therapy?
After more than 35 years in physical therapy, I am still perplexed about patient perceptions regarding their options to achieve a favorable outcome from pain and injury. No, a MRI doesn’t make you feel better and it costs more than six weeks of physical therapy intervention. The MRI’s job is to find something wrong with your body – but does it have anything to do with what you are complaining about?*! The most common response with my patients after seeing a doctor is they only give three options - more pills, another shot, or surgery! None of those options give you back the function you have lost, the ability to move without pain, to roll over in bed without waking yourself up, or dealing with your daily chores without suffering.
Physical Therapists are educated and trained to understand the arthrokinematics of the body, are experts in the muscular-skeletal system, and have ethical responsibilities to provide exercise and education to teach patients how to heal themselves thru flexibility, mobility, and stabilization exercises. If you have been told you need surgery, why not try something that might lead to pain relief without going under the knife. Surgery is not always the answer!! The main focus on physical therapy is that people should try less expensive and less invasive options for their injury or problem. It is entirely possible to still function at a high level without perfect anatomy. There are pros without an ACL, shoulders that throw without a long head of the biceps as well as stiff/tight hips that makes the back hurt and are relieved with flexibility.
As proud of my profession as I am, even I perceive that physical therapy cannot fix everything. Surgery is a viable option when the damage is too great to overcome – and, it happens. When you wake up in the recovery room hurting less than when you went into surgery, then the surgery was appropriate and good for you. The USA is the largest consumer of pain medication in the world!! Due to the current opioid crisis, the Center for Disease Control now recommends physical therapy as the first point of treatment for low back pain! If there is a mechanical problem with your back, a Physical Therapist can look above and below your injury and find the source of your pain and not just treat the symptoms.
