Imagine discovering your life’s calling at just 13 years old. That's exactly what happened to Patrick Allen, the owner of PT on the Plains, following a baseball injury that led him to physical therapy. Tune into the Good Neighbor Podcast as Patrick shares his compelling journey from patient to practitioner, detailing the transformative power of physical therapy in alleviating pain and restoring mobility. With 13 years of experience under his belt, Patrick dives into the various methods and interventions that help patients reclaim their lives, whether they’re recovering athletes or individuals dealing with mobility issues.
But that's not all—Alabama's healthcare landscape is changing, and Patrick gives us the inside scoop on a groundbreaking new law. As of June 1st, residents can now access physical therapy services without a physician's referral, thanks to the introduction of direct access. This significant shift promises greater flexibility and improved access to care for patients. Join us for an enlightening discussion on the collaborative nature of physical therapy and its crucial role in holistic recovery, all from the perspective of a passionate and experienced therapist making waves in his community.
