Education primarily. PT’s earn a clinical doctorate (Doctor of Physical Therapy) similar to a chiropractor’s clinical doctorate (Doctor of Chiropractic). With PTs and chiropractors, the focus of our education and treatment is different. PT’s focus on rehabilitation in the forms of manual therapy, corrective exercise, body mechanics and patient education with the goal of empowering the patient for long-term success. Some chiropractors do some of those elements but some are much more reactive in treating symptoms. Chiropractors focus on joints and the nervous systems with manipulations and adjustments which may not have long-term results unless married with some form of rehabilitation like corrective exercises. A personal trainer is not a degree but rather a certification that provides training in creating exercise programs to help individuals meet specific health or performance related goals.
This is a very difficult question to answer as every patient and every condition is different how much attention it may require. Some conditions can be successfully treated in a few weeks and others may take a few to several months. Once evaluated, your physical therapist can better answer this question as it applies to you.
We do see community members outside of the Marquette community. We do see pre-adolescent and adolescent children primarily for orthopedic issues.
