Summary

Physical Therapy Prescriptions for Musculoskeletal Disorders will assist the physician in understanding the physical therapy process once a prescription is written. To achieve this, typical cases of musculoskeletal conditions are followed from the original work-up to the physical therapy prescription. This includes a clear and concise presentation of a case, results of the physical exam, and the exercises that will be used during physical therapy. Each case also provides the actual prescription form, filled out appropriately for that condition.
