As physical therapists, we have the power to transform a person's life, from opening up the community to a person with spinal cord injury by teaching him to how to move his body, to enabling an infant with cerebral palsy to look into her mom's face by showing mom how to best hold the child, to helping an athlete get back to the sport she loves through meticulous, biomechanics-informed training. It's the magic we bring to the lives of our patients through our knowledge and skills.
