Have you ever profited from physical therapy? Have you ever benefited from physical therapy? Maybe a physical therapist helped you recover from an injury. Or perhaps physical therapy has helped alleviate your pain. Regardless of the situation, if you've ever seen a physical therapist, thank them for their hard work. If your child, other family members, or loved one who has ever benefited from seeing one, you can also thank a physical therapist.
If you have never had a need for physical therapy, a great way to start this day is to get up and get moving. Encourage others to do the same!
