A key purpose of the Physical Therapy (PT) Day of Service is to unite our profession in a global effort to support and better our communities.\u00a0 Physical therapy has such a wide impact to improve communities to bring about positive and lasting change through movement.\u00a0 As ambassadors of physical therapy, Live Your LifeTM<\/sup> partnered with Concordia University 2nd<\/sup> year Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) students to provide free balance screenings for low income individuals in St. Paul, Minnesota. Our team was able to screen nearly 30 people on that day! The recipients of the free balance screenings were so grateful and appreciative of this service.<\/p>\n

We screened many individuals who would benefit from physical therapy. The DPT students worked hard to make this day a success with the goal of bringing awareness to National Fall Prevention Awareness Day, and to Global PT Day of Service. Great job students!\u00a0 Through providing this service, all of these students were able to demonstrate the benefit and value of physical therapy. We thank all the sponsors and the facility for making this day possible. We look forward to returning next year! #PTDOS<\/p>\n

One of Concordia\u2019s DPT students who participated in this event was Kayla Van Der Weerd and she put it best when she stated, “Providing balance screens for the residents of St. Paul public housing was a fantastic experience. It was amazing to see the immediate benefits and gratitude from the residents. I will definitely be returning again to help provide this wonderful service to those in need.”<\/p>\n

At Live your LifeTM<\/sup><\/a> we offer physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, personal training, acupuncture, massage therapy, health coaching along with dietary services.<\/p>\n

Thank you to all that helped us make this day happen! Happy Physical Therapy Month!<\/p>\n
