What Is Functional Activity Management?
Are you having trouble participating in an activity you used to be able to do with ease because of a pain problem? We understand that you’re experiencing pain that is impacting many aspects of your life, and we’re here to help. Partners in Physical Therapy in Lake Charles’s Functional Activity Management program could be a good fit for you.
This is a program that is specifically designed to address the activity limitations of a patient. There are many things people become unable to do as they age or develop chronic pain conditions, but with the help of the Partners in Physical Therapy physical therapists, you don’t have to say no to doing the things you love.
Who is FAM for?
Do you have a goal in mind when it comes to your fitness? Is there a sport you’d like to be able to play again, or things you’d like to do independently such as driving, reaching onto high shelves or lifting boxes?
It doesn’t matter what your main objective is or what you want to be improved during treatment. Our physical therapists at Partners in Physical Therapy will make managing and improving your functional activity the main focus of your program goal.
Other things the functional activity management program can help you accomplish:
- Being able to get down on the floor to play with your children/grandchildren
- Make it through pitching an entire baseball game
- Cook a meal while standing up for a long period of time
Sometimes, we find that a patient’s problem is their lack of training or strength. Other times, it’s common for us to find that the patient’s issue stems from chronic pain and problems getting around on their own safely. The beauty of the FAM program is that it takes all of these situations into account to help a person more easily and comfortably perform the tasks, sports, or hobbies they enjoy the most. Our treatment plans in this program are focused entirely on helping you get back to doing what you love.
