The disadvantages of physical therapy for back and neck pain are similar to many approaches--your practitioner is usually biased to a certain belief in how they treat the body. The problem with these biases is that, if you present with a situation that is outside their skill set, you won't achieve the results you desire. Unfortunately this is the case in health care because the human body is a vast and complex collection of tissues and functions. The good news is that you should begin to see positive results from your treatment after just a couple of visits. So you will quickly know whether that practitioner has the skills to help you.
