Structured, individualized physical therapy targeting mobility, strength, and function in the presence of pain — a core component of most pain plans.
What it is & how it works

How it's done
Typically administered as outpatient sessions of roughly 30–45 minutes, one to three times weekly, delivered by a physiotherapist, with a structured home-exercise program between visits and goals reassessed periodically over a course of weeks to months.

This varies by condition and response — sessions are typically 30–45 minutes, one to three times weekly, with progress reviewed periodically over weeks to months rather than a fixed number set in advance.
