Pre-Physical Therapy

Physical therapists provide care to approximately 1,000,000 patients a day! PT's are health care professionals who diagnose and treat people of all ages who have medical problems or other health-related conditions that limit their abilities to move and perform the normal activities we undertake in our daily lives. PT's work individually with their patients, developing care plans using treatment techniques to help them move, reduce their pain, restore functions and prevent any further disabilities. Next to the clergy, physical therapy ranked highest in job satisfaction, according to a 2009 survey conducted by the National Opinion Research Center at the University of Chicago. Demand for physical therapists will remain strong as more and more baby-boomers join the ranks of weekend-warrior athletes. The Physical Therapy program has direct tracks to two major universities in Kansas for the completion of your professional training.
