Hi King,
You have asked an insightful question. I chose to become a physical therapist initially because I thought that it would be an opportunity to combine my passion for sports with my desire to work in a people-oriented field. Along the way to becoming a physical therapist, I also discovered that I enjoy learning how the body works. Many years later, I am still working as a physical therapist, and I love sharing my knowledge about the body with my patients. The body is like a very intricate machine, and it is amazing how well it works when all the muscles work together correctly. My job as a physical therapist is to help solve the puzzle of what muscles are not doing their jobs correctly and help the patient correct their faulty movement patterns. I enjoy the problem-solving aspect of the job and sharing my knowledge with others. Additionally, helping people overcome their injuries and return to their desired activities is a definite other perk of the job.
