If you're someone who has needed PT, but has continued puting it off, now is a great time to do it. With this quarantine a lot of people have found themselves doing a lot of sitting at home, and if you haven't heard sitting is the new smoking. It can lead to a number of issues, most common are low back pain and neck/shoulder pain. We also present you with a unique opportunity to escape your children and/or spouse, especially if they haven't gone back to work or school yet. If any of this sounds like your situation then please, "help me, help you!" (Also comment the name of that movie)

You can call us at 812-246-8975 for more information or to schedule an appointment /free consultation to talk to our therapist to see how we can help you. Don't forget you don't need a script from a doctor (unless you have medicare).

Have a great day, stay safe and stay sane!

Good afternoon everybody! We wanted to make a quick post to simply let everybody know that if you need physical therapy services during these difficult times we are open. I know many places have been doing video physical therapy, which in our opinion is a complete waste of time. You can not properly be assessed or treated this way. Obviously everybody has a concern due to current events and we are taking proper precautions to keep our patients and ourselves healthy. If you need/want REAL PT, please give us a call and schedule @ 502-817-0421. Have a great day and stay healthy.

This article was written with a focus on the down falls of health insurance cost. However what caught our attention were the prices charged by physical therapy companies. Just because you can charge an absurd amount doesn't mean you should and higher prices do not equal higher quality services. Like any other service look for the best price, after all it is your money and your choice of where you attend physical therapy.

This Indiana University professor was perplexed by the bills he received after his son needed physical therapy for minor injuries.

Please do not ignore or underestimate the importance of nutrition and the roll it plays in recovering from an injury, surgery, or trauma. If you want the best results dialing in your nutrition coupled with physical therapy can really speed your recovery along. Check out the three stages of an injury along with some helpful tips posted by precision nutrition.

Recently we have had a few patients inform us that their Dr has requested that they have physical therapy and instead of informing that it's their choice where they go they are referring them internally to themselves. Some have had to argue with the office. One facility went as far as to argue with the patient and ignore their request to come to our clinic instead sending their script to their own PT clinic, halting our ability to schedule the patient and their ability to fix their issue for 3 WEEKS!

PLEASE remember it's YOUR choice and fully up to you where you attend physical therapy. With hospitals in the area accumulating more doctor's offices it will become more of a regular thing for them to try everything they can to keep you in your system, regardless of what is best for you and your recovery.

Let us know if you have ever had this issue. Tells us what it was or just comment 'yes'.

In July 1998, Donna & I made the decision to open a physical therapy practice in Sellersburg, even though physicians & other physical therapists thought we were crazy. We had comments like "Why are you opening in Sellersburg? Wouldn't it be better to open in Jeffersonville or New Albany close to the doctors?" Another one was "Do you think with all of the changes in Medicare this is the best time to open a practice?" As usual my philosophy was to do the opposite of what everyone does. On February 5, 1999 we opened the doors and God has blessed us for 20 years, so we are celebrating another anniversary. We are so humbled and thankful to have had the opportunity to treat thousands & thousands of wonderful people from all over Southern Indiana & Kentucky. Some have driven as far as 2 hours away for our services and we do not have the words to express our appreciation other than to simply say "Thank you!" from the bottom of our hearts. If any of you or your family members have been a patient at Jackson Physical Therapy & Associates within the the past 20 years we would be honored if you have the time to stop by our facility or call us at 812-246-8975 and let us know how you are doing. Once again Thank you and we wish you and your family the best. God Bless You!
