Podcasts are an increasingly popular way to get information, and APTA delivered dozens in 2024. They covered advice for women leaders, clinical practice guidelines for telerehabilitation, postpartum exercises, origin stories from PTs and PTAs, and more.

Here are five of the most listened-to APTA Podcasts of 2024:

Former PTJ Editor-in-Chief Alan M. Jette, PT, PhD, FAPTA, talks with Shawn Farrokhi, PT, DPT, PhD, about his study exploring the associations between the utilization of active, passive, and manual therapy interventions for low back pain with one-year escalation-of-care events, including opioid prescriptions, spinal injections, specialty care visits, and hospitalizations. Listening time — 26:59.
