Rebecca’s Answer
My physical therapy career has taken many turns, constantly evolving, and that is what I love about it. I have worked different schedules in different settings with different people and it has kept my career interesting. I have been able to modify my work life to fit my family life as my needs have evolved. Since there are always places hiring, I have enjoyed a freedeom of never worrying about not having a job.
I also love using both my brain and my body. I love learning more and more about the wonder of the human body. To read an article about an injury or rehab technique never feels like "work" to me. The way people respond to their own bodies is fascinating, and teaching them about this is very rewarding.

I've always been drawn to work environments that offer me the freedom to make my own decisions and the flexibility to adapt my practice as needed.
Physical therapy aligns with my love for staying active, as it involves much more movement than sitting idle. The degree in physical therapy opens up a wide array of career paths. It's not just limited to direct patient care; there are opportunities in management, sales, and education, among many others.
