Clinic combines physical therapy, behavioral medicine, and nutrition to better address increasingly common problems like arthritis, obesity and chronic pain, Three Point Healthcare reports

More Americans than ever before struggle with arthritis, obesity, chronic pain, and behavioral health challenges like stress, depression, and anxiety. The fragmented healthcare services that are so often proposed in response only rarely produce lasting, satisfying results. By combining Physical Therapy, nutritional support, and behavioral medicine in an evidence based, multidisciplinary fashion, Three Point Healthcare is making a much-needed difference for many patients in the area.

Instead of merely showing patients how to lose weight fast, Three Point Healthcare nutritionists and licensed clinical social workers help them lose it for good while physical therapists help them manage their orthopedic dysfunction. With a designated Patient Care Advocate coordinating activities across the clinic's three complementary points of focus, every patient's schedule, benefits and pre-authorizations are coordinated in advance. From developing a nutrition program that will enable long-term, permanent weight loss to providing physical therapy and behavioral health support, the Three Point Healthcare team of clinicians is dedicated to helping each patient in the most personalized, effective way possible.

"Fragmented healthcare has become a real roadblock for many people in the area, with conditions and situations that merit a multidisciplinary approach often being addressed from only one angle," said Three Point Healthcare representative Kelly Allen. "There are many cases today where physical therapists, dietitians, and behavioral health experts can coordinate in some combination to better serve the true needs of patients. By putting these highly trained, licensed clinicians at the service of patients and under the direction of their physicians, Three Point Healthcare is making a real difference for many in the area."

More than a third of all American adults are now obese, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, with many more registering as chronically overweight. Obesity can be extremely challenging to tackle in its own right, but it can also lead to further issues like arthritis, chronic pain, depression, and eating disorders.

In fact, many of the health problems that most commonly affect Americans today can cause similarly troubling and varied side effects. Unfortunately, healthcare is often provided to patients in a fragmented fashion that never achieves a big-picture view of the overall situation or how best to address it.

The multidisciplinary Three Point Healthcare approach was designed to ensure that patients will receive all the care and support they can benefit from. By offering frequently complementary treatments like physical therapy, nutritional support, and behavioral medicine in a coordinated, patient-focused setting, the Three Point Healthcare team does away with the issues associated with the usual, more fragmented takes on care.
