Physical Therapy Functional Training
At your first appointment, your Physical Therapist will perform a thorough evaluation and develop a personalized rehabilitation treatment program with you that may include Functional Training.
What is Functional Training?
Functional training activities incorporate the use of multiple parameters such as balance, strength, coordination, and range of motion. Functional activities are designed to safely and gradually progress as you recover to allow for achievement of your functional and recreational goals.
Functional training is meant to improve the activities of daily living (sometimes referred to as ADL). ADL can range from personal care activities, like showering or dressing, to housekeeping or home maintenance activities, like cleaning, putting dishes away, or doing yardwork, to activities you need to do for work and recreation.

What Our Clients Say
I’ve been to many physical therapy centers in my life, mostly for back and knee problems and fortunately most have been pretty good. But Low Country PT ranks at the very top of the list. All the therapists and staff members know their stuff and all can answer any questions you have. The atmosphere is fun and positive. There’s a reason they’ve won Best of the Beach for 10 years and running. I hear all the physical therapists are very good. I had Melanie and she was excellent! She addressed all my concerns and answered all my questions. I still do all the exercises and stretches she had me do while I’m at the gym and my improvement has been game changing. Jason M. at Low Country PT in Garden City has been my husband’s therapist after two of his shoulder surgeries this year and he has done an excellent job. We would highly recommend them for any PT you may need in the Myrtle Beach area.
