From the Author:
I receive so many questions and concerns regarding physical therapy, exercises, and career advice on a daily basis. This comes from a variety of sources like family, friends, families, coworkers, social groups, etc.. I see a real need for people to have a reliable source for some exercise methods. Also a reliable source for new PTs and students PTs to address their issues and set their expectations right. This is how lifeofpt was born.
My Aim:
As a PT, I see miracles happening on a daily basis. I want to share these positive stories among people. So therapists can have faith and trust in themselves and in their treatment. This is why I introduced a section for professional Resources. I also want people to have faith in the PT treatment. Along with that, I want to provide some easily available, ready to print, reliable to follow exercise sessions on some major topics with no cost. This blog is not a replacement for any physical therapy session or any doctor’s visit. Rather, the purpose is to provide some information on how to do exercises and to avoid injuries, etc. This is how Ortho, Neuro, and deconditioning sections are developed.
