Tips For Successful Treatment

Take time to talk with your provider about any of the following:

-What do you hope to accomplish by coming in for therapy?

-Where are you feeling pain or discomfort and how often does this occur?

-How have these symptoms impacted your life (e.g., work, hobbies/activities)?

-Do you feel like there is a specific area(s) of your body that needs more attention than others?

-Are there certain times when it’s difficult for you to perform tasks without aggravating an injury or condition such as after performing regular household chores, sleeping, sitting at school/work all day, etc.?           

-Have other health care providers suggested physical therapy as part

The Importance of Finding The Right Physical Therapist

Physical Therapy works, the research proves that. However, one of the biggest variables for success was the Patient and Therapist relationship. It is important to find a physical therapist that you feel comfortable with. At Apex Physical Therapy, we have therapists on staff that specialize in various areas of medicine and injury so the chances are good that your needs will be met.

In order for PT to work properly, it’s imperative that you give 100% effort into rehabilitating. This means going outside your comfort zone at times but this is crucial for success! The people who don’t do their best end up not getting better or worse off than when they started out.

If you are fully committed, your therapist will be your best advocate for your success. They will work with you to achieve your goals.

PATIENT SUCCESS

“Overall experience has been amazing! APEX is not only a CrossFit and physical therapy place but it makes it even better with the friendly and cooperative staff among APEX.!” ~ Brit C.  

Jacob Scalf did an excellent job as my PT. He was very competent, as well as courteous, while I was in his care. The entire staff at Apex PT was very welcoming and efficient as well. I truly appreciate their service. I highly recommend them for physical therapy.” ~ Rachel R. 

 

“Coming from a small town, I was uncertain where to turn for treatment. The initial thought of “Let’s go to Lexington or Knoxville” had entered my mind. Thankfully, a good friend of mine had began a clinic in downtown Barbourville. I personally saw Dr. Jacob Scalf, for treatment of my lower back. One of the best decisions I could have made. I hoped to find answers, and I left with a sense of direction. Not only had my symptoms been relieved, but Dr. Scalf and the wonderful staff gave me instruction on how to continue the activities I love, pain free. Rather than time typical “Band Aid Treatment”, I was given a plan on how to strengthen my lower body and improve posture. Pain and discomfort isn’t something you have to live with. Answers, close to home. Thanks, Apex!.” ~ Tyler D.

 

“I was having back issues last year and my doctor recommended physical therapy. I decided to go to apex and Matt really helped me get some pain relief.. He always asked me everytime I went back in how much pain i was in and if I thought I was seeing results.. let me tell you, he knows his stuff and even though he’ll put you through the ringer, hes doing it for you. After two months i was fully healed and was released back to my normal self. I wouldn’t go to anyone else for you therapy needs. MATT is AWESOME!! Thanks so much!!!  ~ Ashley W

 

Matt did an excellent job fixing my problem.. staff is courteous and I would recommend them for any problem you have.. can’t say enough good things about this therapist and staff.” Amy M
