CHI Saint Joseph Health - Outpatient Rehabilitation, Nicholasville

PTs are experts in how the body works. They spend the extra time you need to help improve your quality of life, from easing everyday aches and pains to treating more serious problems that prevent flexibility and movement.

Physical therapists also teach you how to take care of yourself, so you can prevent the pain from returning.

The benefits of physical therapy apply to a wide variety of conditions and situations. These include:
