Is PT The Right Profession for You?

Yes! Physical therapy is a great career choice for those who like to move around and stay active throughout their workday. Physical Therapists work with patients to teach them how to roll over, transition from siting to standing, walk and even climb stairs. Pediatric physical therapists also participate in play on the floor and play structures. Although there may be some desk-work time, the majority of your PT career will be spent moving and even playing through your workday. No! Not all physical therapists participate in a highly active role, there are options such as documentation auditing, technology innovation, writing, or even liaison work if this field truly interests you.
