What does a #PhysicalTherapist do and how can they help you be your best? Hopefully, this thread will help clear up any confusion you might have. #PhysicalTherapy is often misunderstood and there are many myths out there. #GetPT1st

Catrin Pugh was left with 96% burns following a coach crash in the French Alps in 2013, now she's become a physiotherapist to help other burns survivors. She tells #BBCBreakfast she took inspiration from the team who helped her. bbc.in/3x3Llv2

"Leaking" is never normal. If you're frustrated with incontinence, please consider contacting a physical therapist who specializes in pelvic health. #GetPT1st #pelvicPT

@aarondfrancis @rsobers @paulg Sooo sorry to hear you had an experience like that. That's not how it should be done & you deserved better. That "fast food" type of model is something we don't ever support. In the future, if you do end up needing therapy, I hope you can find a PT who will give you that 1:1 care

I didn't realize how important physical therapists are when I was a kid, in much the same way you don't realize how important a good mechanic is while your car is still under warranty.

@DrSethPT Yep! We know the name really bothers some folks, but in the end it is about getting people the care they need, when they need it... all within our messed up healthcare system. #startwithPTfirst just doesn't have much of a ring to it. 😂

14y ago I received PT at Spaulding Rehab (Boston) for a stroke. I would not be where I am today without PT and I realize the long term impact 9% reduction would have on lower income communities. Access to PT should be a right, not a priviledge. Your voice matters. #FightTheCut

It's easy to get busy with things and forget to take care of yourself. We wish you all the best this season. Please make yourself (and your health) a priority.

Shout out to the therapists providing telehealth. If you are a PT who offers treatment via telehealth, please reply with how people can reach you and RT to spread the word! #telehealth #PhysicalTherapy #GetPT1st

Many conditions that people think require surgery like rotator cuff tears, spinal stenosis, and compression fractures can be treated just as effectively with physical therapy. ow.ly/pjQ050yoHbP #GetPT1st #choosePT #PainPT
