Bringing motion to life.
When patients have an injury or disease that affects their mobility, you get them moving again. With your expertise in how the human body functions, you can help an injured athlete run again. Help a bedridden stroke patient get on their feet and carry out daily life. Or teach a child how to walk again after an accident. And you’ll educate them on how to prevent loss of mobility and live a healthier, more active life.
Become a highly skilled physical therapist.
Working with the latest technology, you’ll learn to how to mobilize a joint or strengthen muscles to promote proper movement and function. You’ll work one-on-one with patients to help them move, reduce pain, restore function and prevent disability. And you’ll graduate as a health professional fully prepared to diagnose and treat the wide variety of physical conditions encountered in today’s intense clinical settings.
