What does APMT mean in MEDICAL

Advanced Physical Medicine and Therapy (APMT) is a form of healthcare that combines traditional physical medicine with evidence-based, comprehensive therapeutic interventions to improve the quality of life for patients. APMT focuses on both preventive and acute care, using an integrated and holistic approach to healing.

APMT can treat a wide range of conditions including orthopedic injuries, musculoskeletal pain, neurological disorders, sports injuries, post-surgical recovery, balance issues, vertigo/dizziness rehabilitation, headaches/migraines and more.

Common therapies used in APMT include manual therapy (such as massage or joint mobilization), therapeutic exercise (including core stability, strengthening exercises), electrical stimulation such as TENS or EMS, dry needling techniques and modalities such as ultrasound or laser therapy.

Anyone who suffers from chronic pain or has sustained an injury can potentially benefit from APMT. It is also recommended for those seeking greater mobility or balance as well as athletes looking to maximize performance.

Each person's response to treatment may vary depending on the condition being treated but most people see results within one to three sessions. However it is important to note that the true benefits of this type of treatment often take weeks or even months before becoming fully realized.
