Frequently Asked Questions

Can physical therapy help with mid-back pain?

Yes. Thoracic pain often comes from posture issues, muscle imbalances, or joint stiffness. Physical therapy corrects these problems and restores pain-free movement.

How long does recovery usually take?

Most thoracic pain cases improve in 4–8 weeks with consistent treatment. Chronic issues may take longer, but progress is typically seen within the first few sessions.

What if I’ve already tried PT for my back and it didn’t help?

Not all PT is the same. At Spectrum Therapeutics, every session is one-on-one with Dr. Rob Letizia, Doctor of Physical Therapy. We use advanced manual therapy, corrective exercise, and shockwave when appropriate. Many patients who failed at other clinics succeed here because the treatment is precise and tailored.

How quickly will I notice improvement in my mid-back pain?

Most patients feel relief within the first few sessions. With consistent therapy, posture improves, stiffness decreases, and mobility returns in 4–8 weeks.
