Healing in Motion, Celebrating Physical Therapy Awareness

Mobility is freedom—whether it’s walking pain-free, bouncing back after surgery, or rebuilding strength after injury. Physical therapy helps people reclaim their lives by putting healing into motion.

💡 3 Things to Learn:

• First, physical therapists treat people of all ages, helping with conditions like back pain, arthritis, stroke recovery, and mobility challenges (American Physical Therapy Association).
• Second, regular physical therapy lowers fall risk for older adults significantly (CDC).
• Third, PT is proven to help people avoid opioids and surgeries by addressing root causes of pain (NIH).

🌱 3 Ways to Live It:

• Stick to your prescribed physical therapy plan if you’re given one.
• Add more movement into your daily life even in simple ways like stretching at work.
• And advocate in your family for proactive rather than pain-avoiding treatment.

🤝 3 Resources to Share:

• American Physical Therapy Association,
• NIH Integrative Pain Relief,
• CDC Fall Prevention.
