A Physical Therapist, often abbreviated as PT, is a healthcare professional who specializes in helping individuals of all ages recover from injuries, surgeries, or medical conditions that affect their physical mobility and function. They play a critical role in enhancing people’s quality of life by assisting them in regaining strength, mobility, and independence.

They focus on evaluating, diagnosing, and treating physical conditions that affect a person’s movement, function, and overall well-being. Physical therapists work closely with patients to develop personalized treatment plans aimed at improving mobility, relieving pain, and enhancing their ability to perform daily activities.
