In acute situations and with monitored dosages, opioids can be an appropriate part of medical treatment. However, physical therapy is a powerful tool for controlling pain and returning to the life you want to be living.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Avoid surgery.<\/strong> Before you undergo expensive or invasive surgery, try physical therapy. For some conditions, including meniscal tears and knee arthritis, rotator cuff tears, spinal stenosis and degenerative disk disease, treatment by a physical therapist has been found to be as effective as surgery.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2356,"featured_media":7615,"menu_order":0,"template":"","class_list":["post-1970","uch_location","type-uch_location","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/uch_location\/1970","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/uch_location"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/uch_location"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2356"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7615"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uchealth.org\/locations\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
