OCTOBER IS NATIONAL PHYSICAL THERAPY MONTH

As a non-clinician working for a physical therapy company I often am asked questions about our physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, and athletic trainers on staff. What people often don’t realize about physical therapists is their background in terms of the education they receive. All programs have moved to a Doctor of Physical Therapy therefore the time commitment is usually 3 years. Upon completion of the doctorate program, the graduate must pass the National Physical Therapy Examination. This is conducted through each state’s licensing board. Once becoming licensed the clinicians are constantly making sure they are learning new techniques, becoming certified in specialty certifications, and ultimately making sure they are helping their patients achieve the outcomes they desire.

I have been a patient before…long before working here. Not only do clinicians need to know how to get you better, but they need to be compassionate, patient, and understanding. I feel fortunate to work with clinicians who make it easy for me to “market” them. Not only do we have talented clinicians who get their patients better, but also great people who take a personal interest in every patient who walks through the door. Thank you to all of our clinicians who work so hard….we appreciate you, your time, and all of your efforts!

Here is a comment from a patient who filled out our exit survey a week ago;

“There was a time when I didn’t think I would be able to play golf again, but Matt assured me that I would; and with his help, I’m fully recovered!!! No pain!!!! I can’t say thanks enough!!! If you want the best in physical therapy go see Matt and his staff at Oxford!!!”

Welcome to Oxford Physical Therapy

Hello! My name is Wesleigh Cummings and I am the Manager of  Business Development at Oxford Physical Therapy. I’m not the type of person to write a blog…but I’m going to give it my best shot!  Who reads blogs?  What kind of information are our patients looking for within a blog?  These are a few of the questions running through my head as I type Oxford Physical Therapy Centers first blog!  I’m excited to try to connect with our patients and potential patients.  We have always been a resource in the communities we call home, but this is a little different.  If there is a subject matter you want us to talk about?  Feel free to offer some suggestions!

In order to better serve you we are happy to share our new website with you.  It is more organized, visually pleasing, and or course full of content which can be helpful to you!  In addition, we are a part of the social media craze….have you “liked” us on Facebook yet?  Some of our physical therapists have been on Fox 19 sharing their expertise with the Tri-State area, we have shot a few information videos on running tips, Kinesio Taping, and shoulder injuries in softball and baseball players.  Visit our YouTube page to take a peek!

I started at Oxford Physical Therapy Centers in 2005…and there have been a number of changes…one of the most obvious is we have gone from 4 Centers to TEN!  We have locations across the Tri-State Area (Oxford, Fairfield, Blue Ash, Hyde Park, Mason, Hamilton, West Side, Montgomery) including Northern Kentucky (Florence and Independence).

Our therapists are trained in a number of different areas…just to name a few;

Billy Beaudreau, PT, DPT, MTC has just recently earned his Manual Therapy Certification (MTC) from the University of St. Augustine.

Matt Ernst, PT, MPT, OCS is a Board Certified Orthopeadic Clinical Specialist.

Brian Adkins, MPT, CSCS, CGFI is a Titleist Performance Institute Certified Golf Fitness Instructor.

Jamie Bayliss, PT, MPT, CKTP and Carrie Ryan, PT, DPT, CKTP are certified in the clinical application of taping through the Kinesio Taping Association International (KT1-3 trained).

Our clinical staff is strong and talented at what they do.  I’m excited for you to learn more about them and what we do at Oxford Physical Therapy Centers.

Stay tuned for more inside information from Oxford Physical Therapy Centers!
