Family Physical Therapy Services was founded in 1991 as a private practice by Cathy and her husband, who are both therapists. Cathy's uncle served as the general accountant. Together they developed a logo for the company. The mighty oak represents strength and resilience while the broken branch symbolizes re-growth. Since family members are often the most concerned about a loved one's welfare, they aimed to incorporate that theme into the logo.
Families can play an active role in physical therapy by
providing moral support and encouraging the patient to reach his or her goals.
Oftentimes, a little encouragement from a friend or family member can be the
difference between a cane and a walker. In many cases, a loved one's motivation
is greater than their own, and family members can help them achieve their
goals. However, families must be prepared for the process and learn as much as
possible about the condition. By understanding the condition of a loved one,
families can manage expectations and motivate their loved one to reach his or
her goals.
In addition to providing moral support, families can also
encourage patients to stick with their therapy. A supportive family can make
the difference between a walker and a cane, or between a patient staying in bed
for a long time. Although physical therapy can be difficult, family members can
make a difference. By helping the patient with motivation and encouragement,
they can make a positive impact on the quality of their loved one's life.
Although family members cannot be expected to fix the
disease, they can help with the treatment. A physical therapist can encourage a
patient to reach their goals and encourage them to push themselves to overcome
their obstacles. A family member's encouragement can mean the difference
between a cane and a walker, or staying in bed for a long time. In addition,
families should understand that physical therapy is a long process and that
they can expect a lot of progress.
Physical therapists can also help patients' families with
motivation. This can be helpful for patients with mobility issues, as a
patient's family can encourage him or her to stick with the program. As a
result, families can make a big difference in the patient's rehabilitation. By
involving their loved ones, the therapist is more likely to push a patient
harder and stick with the program. They can also be a huge motivating force for
the patient.
Besides fostering motivation in patients, a family can be a
positive influence in the patient's physical therapy. The presence of loved
ones in the rehabilitation process makes a patient more likely to push himself
or herself to reach goals. It also helps the patient to stick to the program
and stay motivated. With the right kind of support, family members can help a
patient get back on their feet faster. A positive relationship with a physical
therapist can lead to a successful recovery.
