I can understand why some would think that, as I once did.
Physical therapy is similar in that it matters very little why you have pain. You can improve or eliminate the symptom by appropriately exercising the affected areas.
Similarly, the behavioral treatments can take advantage of all humans' natural adaptability to teach them to model and normalize more socially healthy behaviors.
I'm totally out of my depth in these fields but I have been convinced through firsthand experience via physical therapy. I'm sure it is not a catch all solution to just attack the symptoms, but it does have positive observable results and it therefore seems at least noteworthy.
I'm glad you've seen positive results with physical therapy.
I'd argue that a good physical therapist will understand the cause of the injury, so that they make a good treatment plan. Similarly, a good (contextual) behavior analyst will understand the causes for their patients' difficulties, so that they can make a good treatment plan. When you know where you're standing, it's easier to move forward. That is why evaluation is crucial in both physical therapy and programs like AIM and PEAK.
