Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is an important adjunct to the medical management of many diseases, including arthritis, bursitis, tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, as well as sport injuries and non-sport related injuries. Often physical therapy is viewed as providing various forms of exercises for the patient. In reality, that is only part of the services that a physical therapist offers. Through the use of innovative drug delivery systems, including phonophoresis and iontophoresis, a variety of analgesic and anti-inflammatory agents can be moved through the skin into deeper tissues by a physical therapist. Tri-State Compounding Pharmacy can provide the physical therapist with the necessary compounded prescription medications that can then be administered to patients utilizing these electronically controlled drug delivery systems. |
