Physical Therapy for COVID-19

After any illness that causes fatigue, weakness, balance issues and shortness of breath, recovery can take long time.. “Long” COVID is no different. What many people don’t realize is that physical therapy for COVID-19 can help speed up your recovery.

The condition of “Long” COVID is now being called PASC, which stands for Post-Acute Sequelae of SARS-CoV-2. Our physical therapy team can help by treating the effects of PASC. Getting moving is important to your recovery. Our physical therapists may include activities, including, stretching, strengthening and balance training to assist in your individualized recovery process.

Our goal is to help improve your strength, stamina, and returning you back to your quality of life you experienced before COVID.

If you still suffer from the effects of COVID or any illness that has left you with long-term fatigue, weakness, balance or shortness of breath symptoms, maybe physical therapy can help you? We offer two Ahwatukee locations to help you in your recovery. Contact us at 480-785-5415 to schedule your appointment.
