Happy (Belated) World Physical Therapy Day
What better way to celebrate Physical Therapy then to dedicate a whole day to the profession! Yesterday, Physical Therapists across the globe participated in World Physical Therapy Day, a day established by World Confederation for Physical Therapy (WCPT) to promote and recognize the impact therapists have on their patients and community.
Check out the WCPT website where they provide information on the benefits of physical therapy such as, "the contribution of physical therapy to active aging". For the ever growing elderly population, physical therapy will prove to be an important piece of the puzzle to maintaining a good quality of life.
If you missed World Physical Therapy Day this year, mark your calendar for Sept 8th going forward (it falls on the same day each year)!
