How many times a week for PT?

Post by Wolf »

I started PT a month ago and have been going once a week because my insurance won't cover it and it is rather expensive. My PT thinks once a week is better than nothing and has encouraged me to continue and do my stretches and rexalation between sessions. My only concern is if once a week of PT is truly helpful or is it not enough? Has anyone else out there shown improvement by going once a week to PT? Thanks!

I only got PT from a physio once a week - which did help me. However, I'd recommend doing some internal/external work yourself every second night.
