Physical Therapy Evaluation and Treatment Process

Initial Physical Therapy Evaluation

A licensed physical therapist performs a detailed assessment to understand each client’s medical history, movement patterns, muscle strength, range of motion, balance, and pain levels. Standardized tests and functional movement analyses are used to identify mobility challenges and establish a baseline for care.

Individualized Treatment Plan

Using evaluation findings, your therapist designs a measurable and goal-oriented treatment plan. This plan outlines specific interventions—such as therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, and neuromuscular training—targeted to improve mobility, strength, endurance, and functional performance.

In-Home, and Telehealth Sessions

Physical therapy sessions may be conducted at home, or via secure telehealth sessions. Each setting allows therapists to address functional goals and movement challenges in the environment where they most affect daily life.

Ongoing Progress and Re-Evaluation

Progress is monitored through objective measures, re-assessments, and patient feedback. The treatment plan is updated as improvements occur, ensuring continued progress toward restored movement, independence, and long-term physical wellness.

FAQs

Physical therapy treatment at Mustard Seeds Therapy includes evidence-based exercises, manual therapy, balance and mobility training, posture correction, and pain management strategies. Each session is built around your individual goals, helping restore strength, movement, and confidence in everyday activities.

Our physical therapists provide a range of treatments, including strength and flexibility training, joint and soft tissue mobilization, neuromuscular re-education, gait and balance retraining, and therapeutic exercise programs. We also use modalities such as heat, cold, or electrical stimulation when appropriate.

A typical session includes guided exercises, hands-on therapy, and education on how to continue progress at home. Your therapist will track improvements each visit and adjust your care plan as you advance toward recovery.

Physical therapy is built on five core elements:

  1. Examination – assessing movement, strength, and limitations
  2. Evaluation – interpreting findings to identify needs
  3. Diagnosis – defining the movement or functional issue
  4. Prognosis – setting achievable goals and recovery timelines
  5. Intervention – providing hands-on care and therapeutic exercise
Your first appointment includes an evaluation where the therapist reviews your medical history, discusses your goals, and performs physical assessments. From there, a personalized plan of care is created, and you may begin light exercises during the same session.

Red flags refer to symptoms that indicate a more serious condition requiring medical referral, such as severe unexplained pain, sudden weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, or unexplained weight loss. Our therapists are trained to identify these signs and coordinate with your physician when needed.

The main purpose of a physical therapist is to help individuals regain movement, reduce pain, and restore independence after injury, surgery, or physical limitation. At Mustard Seeds Therapy, we focus on helping clients return to the activities that matter most in daily life.
The most common reasons people seek physical therapy include back and neck pain, joint injuries, post-surgical rehabilitation, and mobility challenges due to neurological or age-related conditions.

The four primary types include:

  1. Orthopedic PT – for muscles, joints, and bones
  2. Neurological PT – for brain or spinal cord conditions
  3. Pediatric PT – for children’s motor development
  4. Geriatric PT – for age-related movement challenges
Physical therapy covers multiple specialties, including orthopedic, neurological, pediatric, geriatric, cardiovascular, and sports rehabilitation. Each specialty targets specific needs across age groups and conditions.

PT (Physical Therapist): A licensed clinician who evaluates and treats patients.

DPT (Doctor of Physical Therapy): A PT who has earned a doctoral degree in physical therapy.

PTA (Physical Therapist Assistant): A licensed professional who supports the PT in delivering hands-on care under their supervision.

The five main treatment approaches in physical therapy are:

  1. Manual therapy
  2. Therapeutic exercise
  3. Neuromuscular re-education
  4. Modalities (e.g., heat, ice, or electrical stimulation)
  5. Functional training and education

OT (Occupational Therapy) helps individuals regain independence in daily activities such as dressing, feeding, or writing.
PT (Physical Therapy) focuses on improving strength, mobility, and body mechanics to restore physical function.
