How long will my physical/occupational therapy course of treatment take?

Each person and their problem are different. The length of the physical/occupational therapy course of treatment depends on the severity of your problem, your response to treatment, the course of treatment prescribed by the doctor, your compliance with attending your sessions, doing your home exercise program and modifying your activities as instructed. You are ready for discharge when:

  • your goals have been met in terms of pain, mobility, strength, resumption of activities
  • you can safely resume your activity level prior to the injury or the onset of the condition
  • the physician approval is obtained
