Also known as “PT”, physical therapy is another core service available at Bloomington Bone & Joint Clinic. At a basic level, PT focuses treatment on restoring strength, muscle control, and range of motion for activities such as sitting, standing, using a wheelchair and/or walking. More advanced PT may focus on a person’s ability to walk or use a wheelchair outdoors over uneven surfaces or getting into and out of vehicles when limitations exist due to illness or injury.
