Annual Physical Therapy Checkup: Your Path to Proactive Healthcare
Don’t wait until pain or injury slows you down. Prioritize your health with an annual physical therapy checkup—designed to detect issues early, improve mobility, and keep you pain-free.
What is an Annual Physical Therapy Checkup?
An annual checkup with a physical therapist is a proactive approach to maintaining optimal health and mobility, similar to regular maintenance for your car or dental visits.
The team at Orthopedic Physical Therapy, Inc. is committed to providing comprehensive preventive care. Our physical therapists have the education, experience, and expertise necessary to perform thorough health screenings that track your physical condition over time. As healthcare continues to evolve toward prevention rather than just treatment, we’re here to keep you moving at your best.
Regular physical therapy checkups help identify potential issues before they become problems. By addressing the source of potential pain or dysfunction early, we can help prevent more serious conditions from developing. Our preventive approach focuses on maintaining and improving your functional mobility rather than just treating symptoms after they appear.
How It Works:

- We identify early warning signs of potential problems based on your unique body mechanics
- Together, we develop personalized strategies to maintain and improve your functional mobility
- We track changes in your physical health over time, allowing for early intervention when needed
