Physical Therapy was prescribed because it is the firstline treatment for most chronic pain conditions. It is less expensive, non-invasive, and generally more successful in the short term than most other modes of therapy. There are different types/kinds/specializations of PT just as there are for medicine, so getting the right kind of PT is of great importance. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_therapy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manual_therapy Doc
