Physical Therapy Professionals

Lendermon Laura Md is a Physical Therapy Professional in Shelby county.

A Physical Therapist is a medical practitioner who evaluates and treats disorders of the human body by employing physical means rather than drugs.

They work to relieve pain, restore function, improve mobility, and limit or prevent lasting physical disabilities of patients suffering from disease or injuries. A Physical Therapist will work hand in hand with the patient's physician and other healthcare practitioners in establishing objectives which are in line with the patient's needs.

Treatment will often include exercise, especially for their patients who have been immobilized or who lack strength, endurance or flexibility. Physical therapists encourage patients to use their muscles to increase their flexibility and range of motion.

More advanced exercises focus on improving strength, balance, coordination, and endurance. The goal is to improve how an individual functions at work and at home.

Some Physical Therapists will treat a wide range of ailments, while others may specialize in areas such as pediatrics, sports medicine, and orthopedics.
