WHY USE PRIVATE PRACTICE PT?

Lilian Holm Wellness not beholden to any large medical organization or corporation and instead offers an alternative to large physical therapy clinics where the therapist's time and attention is shared by several patients at the same time, and the bulk of the care is delivered by assistants and aides, not by doctors of  physical therapy. This model puts the bottom line ahead of quality of care. Many patients have found this approach unsatisfying and less effective. Numerous studies and experts agree: when physical therapy clinics follow the ubiquitous practice of delegating a large part of the care to assistants the quality of care decreases.

Tim Flynn, PT, PhD: “High utilization of physical therapy assistants has been shown to lead to inferior outcomes, especially when it comes to low back pain management”

Beattie et al: "Emphasis on cost-cutting, high patient volume, and the use of “care extenders” may jeopardize satisfaction.”

Resnick et al:"Clinics that are low utilizers of physical therapist assistants are more likely to provide superior care."

Patients whose care is shared by several physical therapists are also more likely to not get well, and more likely to have MRIs and have to undergo surgery.

If you want the best care available, seek out a physical therapist that will actually treat you, every time, the whole time, and isn't forced to treat numerous patients simultaneously or delegate your care to assistants who lack the education and skill of a Doctor of Physical Therapy.

CHOOSE PHYSICAL THERAPY FIRST

While orthopedic surgeons occupy an important position in health care studies show clear cost savings and superior outcomes for patients that turn to a physical therapist first. A 2014 study showed that cost savings for patients choosing physical therapy first were significant: 75% lower costs than the total average costs for the surgery-first group.

       ARE YOU READY FOR CHANGE?

Functional healthcare is about finding the root cause of your symptoms and building health and strength from the inside out. This allows you to achieve optimal function and  well-being and prevent recurrences in the future. 

Individualized Physical Therapy can be combined with Health and Wellness Coaching for optimal results. Learning how to properly nourish your tissues, deepen your sleep and use carefully curated supplements to enhance tissue  regeneration helps bring out your full potential.

ACTIVE PATIENT PARTICIPATION

Good health and normalized function are the result of active lifestyle choices which often include normalizing movement patterns, thought habits, sleep and nutrient intake.Getting better may require learning about how the body and mind function, as well as acquiring a better understanding of how to interpret pain and discomfort.

   Scientific research is constantly uncovering  
 new and exciting information, and we need to    
 continuously incorporate it into our approach
                      to health recovery.

Patients therefore need to be active and engaged participants in their own care and be open to new information, changing beliefs and do their “homework”.


LIFE BEYOND PHYSICAL THERAPY

Lilian Holm Wellness partners with professionals that offer health-supporting services and communicates with them to help you maintain the health and function you have achieved. Whether you need to find a personal trainer, want personalized instructions for your current one or need to find the right pair of running shoes, you will receive the help you need to bridge the gap between physical therapy and everyday life and navigate the world of health and fitness to meet your personal goals, whether they are maintaining health and preventing recurrences, successfully completing a race or extending your health span.

  Your health and success  is our common
​                             goal!
