Physical Therapy

What is Physical Therapy?

Physical Therapy focuses on restoring movement, function, and quality of life for individuals affected by injury, illness, or disability. Students learn anatomy, biomechanics, and rehabilitation techniques to help patients recover strength, mobility, and independence.

Through hands-on clinical experience and evidence-based practice, physical therapists design personalized treatment plans that reduce pain, prevent further injury, and promote long-term wellness. This growing healthcare field offers rewarding careers in hospitals, outpatient clinics, sports medicine, and rehabilitation settings, improving lives through movement and recovery.
