World Physical Therapy Day is celebrated every year on the 8th September. This day is an opportunity to honor all the physical therapists around the globe, this day raises awareness about the excellent contribution these physical therapists make to keep people better and independent.
The human body is remarkably easy to damage and break, and no more so than when participating in strenuous physical activity such as sporting or athletic activity.
Physical therapists work to undo damage, educate on healthy behaviour and to restore lost or damaged functionality. Physical Therapy Day, then, is dedicated to these professionals throughout the world, and aims to recognise their commitment to keeping us all fighting-fit.
