Web Rehab Now Is Revolutionizing Online Healthcare

PHILADELPHIA - May 25, 2013 - PRLog -- Millions of Americans could not afford regular medical visits and follow up care in the past year.  Healthcare costs continue to rise and insurance coverage is becoming more limited, with more uncertainty on the horizon.  People are foregoing treatments they need because they cannot afford co-pays, health insurance, or they don’t have the time to get the treatment they need.

Many of these people in need search for help online.  Web Rehab Now (http://www.webrehabnow.com) is a new web-based service providing help to those suffering with anything from back or neck pain, knee pain, and specialized diagnoses like Fibromyalgia.  The internet is full of free help, if you can wade through all of the misinformation and bad advice to find that one golden nugget of help.  The idea of providing easy and affordable access to actual treatment programs created by licensed healthcare professionals would revolutionize the healthcare industry.

Videos and instructions posted online that claim to help any problem are not a new phenomenon.  Unfortunately there are no credentials required prior to posting a treatment online.  Web Rehab Now’s programs are professionally designed and easily organized to help treat thousands of injuries, conditions, and diagnoses.  These exercise-based programs have been made available to help people who are searching for solutions to physical ailments.

“I tried doing this exercise I found online to fix my back pain, but it made me hurt worse.” This was a common quote heard in clinical practice by the founders of Web Rehab Now, a pair of Licensed Physical Therapists, Matthew Winters, PT, DPT and Brock Harper, PT, MPT.  These dedicated clinicians have 25 combined years of experience, specializing in orthopedics and outpatient rehabilitation.  “So many of our patients were searching online to find the answers we could give them.  We knew there had to be a way to reach the people that needed us;” states Matthew about the development of Web Rehab Now.    

Matthew also credits the inspiration for Web Rehab Now as arising from his patient’s financial needs; “In our clinical practice, we were seeing more and more patients who could not afford copays and consistent treatment.  We had to find a way to bridge the gap in patient care for those people who were unable to get the help they desperately needed.”  Thus, Web Rehab Now was originally created as a supplemental program for clinic-based patients who needed additional support.

Word of mouth spread quickly about the availability of a program online to address so many problems, and many more non-patients requested access to the site.  Now this service is available to anyone with Internet access through a computer, laptop, tablet, or mobile device.  The site also offers updated blogs on current medical research, treatments and fitness tips, along with access to contact a Physical Therapist if needed, and a series of free videos to aid in home treatments.  Web Rehab Now is a new service aiming to help those in need of cost-saving healthcare.
