I’ve decided to major in physical therapy. Now I just need to find a good college that offers physical therapy. Currently I am looking into Seton Hall University. If there are any others or even a website I should check out, please do tell. Also, it has to be within NJ and NY. Thanks for any help.

I’m getting physical therapy for my knee & hip. I haven’t used it at all for about 6-8wks. My first appt. is tomorrow afternoon. What should I expect? What will be done on my 1st appt.? Will the pain be bearable without pain meds? Thanks!

Also, what kind of exercises will they have me to do?

My grandfather has had his knees replaced and only did physical therapy for a little while, then abandoned it. He is 80 yrs old and shuffles around. I was wondering if it would be beneficial to get him back into physical therapy, and if there were any exercise that he could do on his own. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

I’m in my 2nd semester in a community college. I’m planning to transfer to a 4 year University after my 2nd year. Right now i’m taking pre-requisite classes for physical therapy but i wanted to know if its better to major in Health Science and then later go to physical therapy? Or major in Physical Therapy and become a physical therapist?

I am a Chinese majoring in Nursing and have got my bachelor’s degree in Medical Science in China. And this fall, I am going to join a PhD program in Rehabilitation Science (not physical therapy) of a university in U.S. But I think it would be much better to have a clinical license in this field. So can anyone tell me whether I can get a license of physical therapy in U.S., and how? Thanks!

According to their website: "Physical therapy works closely with HBII’s to assist in all injury assessments". I used to dance and would love to work with dancers or at least get some observation hours with the physical therapists who work with the dancers. The website is vague about which doctors or hospitals work with them, only stating that doctors are involved with the dancers injuries and training.

I sprained my ankle yesterday and I’m wondering when is it safe to start physical therapy exercises on it. I’m also wondering what different exercises I can do to strengthen the muscle tissue around my ankles.

I want to get a degree in physical therapy. But it seems I can’t find a college that just specializes or teaches that subject.

I was considering going to Everest College to get a certificate as a masseuse but it seems that it’s A LOT of money just for a certificate. Any advices on getting a Bachelor’s for Physical Therapy. Perhaps in a trade school?

Thank you.

Im interested in majoring physical therapy so i want to know how difficult is it get into the Sargent College at Boston University.

I am wanting to go into physical therapy or sports medicine when i get older. I was wondering if someone could tell me what the difference is between physical therapy and occupational therapy though. Thanks in advance! Happy new year!!
