National Physical Therapy Month is to increase awareness of the role of the physical therapist as the expert in restoring and improving motion. Thousands of physical therapists, physical therapist assistants and physical therapy students nationwide celebrate by hosting special activities in their communities. Physical therapy can improve range of motion and muscle function after an injury, but it is also helpful for the healthy to maintain balance and reduce the risk of getting injured during physical activities.
