  Observer

  Shadowed Physical Therapist for 50 hours to further learn about aspects of sports physical therapy. I learned that there is never just one answer for a patient's given pain or limitation. Treatment needs to be personalized for each and every patient so that they will recover as quickly as possible while doing something they can continue as part of their home exercise plan and even after formal therapy terminates.
