Your primary provider may refer you to Physical Therapy specifically for treatment via the McKenzie Method, as it can quickly reduce pain and assist in return to prior activities. In Physical Therapy, the goal is always to promote independence in recovery and pain maintenance. The McKenzie Method emphasizes reproducible & progressive results as well as the importance of independent continuation.
This method also incorporates a strong educational component that helps you to recognize triggers of pain and prevent future exacerbations. We hope to support your ability to treat your own symptoms independently, should they ever return.
