Are you or a family member experiencing regular pain or are having difficulty moving around? At Virtual PT NYC, we understand how frustrating it can be trying to complete day-to-day tasks while suffering from pain. We also understand that you may have additional concerns about traveling for treatment due to the COVID-19 pandemic. We offer patients the ability to receive treatment in the comfort of their own homes with the use of our online physical therapy Bronx. You will be able to work one-on-one with one of our experienced physical therapists, who will provide you with safe, high quality care. 

What is Physical Therapy?

Pretty much any age group is eligible to receive physical therapy.  However, it may be very helpful for elderly patients. Physical therapy is a good treatment option for those who have chronic pain or have sustained an injury.  It not only helps with reducing pain, but also strengthening muscles. Some additional reasons why elderly patients may seek physical therapy include:

• Improving bladder/bowel control
• Managing chronic illnesses
• Improving balance to prevent falls
• Improving mobility
• Learning how to use an assisted device(i.e cane or walker)

Virtual Physical Therapy

At Virtual PT NYC, we make it very simple for you to receive online physical therapy Bronx. Our team will be more than happy to help guide you through the process. You will first need to contact us either by phone or by filling out our short online form. After your contact information and health insurance details are collected by our team, we will send you an intake form to complete. When scheduling your appointment, you will be able to select the physical therapist that best meets your needs and schedule.

The only thing that you will need for your virtual session is a quiet space. Once you begin your session, your physical therapist will ask you questions about your symptoms and conduct an assessment of your condition. They may also instruct you to do specific bodyweight exercises at home or have you utilize light weights to help improve your condition.  Your family members can be trained as well in order to provide additional assistance and further help with your progress.

Benefits

• Convenience: Patients who are unable to travel or live in underserved areas are able to gain access to physical therapists. This may also help reduce the anxiety that comes with visiting a doctor’s office. 
• Limited exposure to pathogens: Traveling into communities and having to sit for long periods of time in waiting rooms may increase your chances of being exposed to viruses.
• Lower costs: Telehealth physical therapy generally costs less than in-person visits.  We will do our best to keep costs low by working with your health insurance carrier.
