If physical therapy was just exercises…
you wouldn’t still be in pain.
📉 Because if stretching and YouTube workouts worked for complex pain, most people wouldn’t end up in PT in the first place.
🔐 The real value of skilled physical therapy is in the plan, a plan built around how you move, how your nervous system is responding, and what phase of recovery you’re in.
👉 It’s not just what you do, but:
🔵Which movements are right for your body
🔵When to progress or pull back
🔵How much your system can handle
🔵Why certain areas are guarded or painful
✅ Sometimes the answer is exercise.
✅ Sometimes it’s manual therapy, education, or breath work.
✅ And sometimes… it’s just having someone help you stop overthinking every ache.
📢 Google gives you exercises.
A physical therapist gives you a plan.
