Core Focus DPT

At Core Focus Physio & Wellness, we are always seeking innovative ways to provide exceptional care to our patients. One of the most transformative advancements in recent years is virtual physical therapy (PT). This approach has proven to be not only effective but also highly flexible, enabling us to meet the diverse needs of our patients.

What is Virtual Physical Therapy?

Virtual physical therapy uses technology like video conferencing and specialized apps to deliver personalized treatment plans right to your home. For many, this means overcoming barriers such as time constraints, transportation challenges, or physical limitations that may prevent regular in-person visits.

According to MedBridge, Virtual PT ensures patients can access care from the comfort of their homes while maintaining the same high standards of treatment outcomes.

“Virtual PT isn’t about replacing the hands-on work you do with patients; it’s about expanding your toolkit to better serve them.” –MedBridge

Evidence of Effectiveness

The effectiveness of virtual PT has been well-documented, particularly for patients with musculoskeletal conditions. A study published in The American Journal of Managed Care found that:

Patient-initiated virtual physical therapy (PIVPT) not only provides excellent clinical outcomes but also offers significant economic benefits.

The study reported a return on investment of up to 2.2, showcasing the value of virtual care both for patients and providers. And patient-initiated virtual physical therapy helped to “increase adherence to PT services, promote continuity of care, and improve attendance and follow-through with evidence-based treatment guidelines.” 

It’s natural to wonder if virtual PT can truly match the effectiveness of traditional methods. Rest assured, numerous studies confirm its efficacy. During the COVID-19 pandemic, virtual PT expanded rapidly, demonstrating its potential to deliver quality care even in challenging circumstances.

The Peterson Health Technology Institute (PHTI), a nonprofit organization, published the Virtual Musculoskeletal Solutions Health Technology Assessment. After independently analyzing over 2,000 pieces of literature:

PHTI determined that many virtual musculoskeletal (MSK) solutions provide clinical benefits to patients comparable to those of in-person physical therapy.

The Hybrid Approach: Best of Both Worlds

For patients who prefer a mix of in-person and online care, we’re excited to offer a hybrid option. This flexible model allows you to benefit from hands-on treatments during in-person sessions while continuing your progress with virtual check-ins and guided exercises at home. The hybrid approach is ideal for those seeking the best of both worlds, ensuring that your therapy plan is tailored to your lifestyle and goals.
