October is National Physical Therapy Month — a time to recognize and celebrate the physical therapy profession, spotlight the many benefits of physical therapy, and show the impact that physical therapists and physical therapist assistants have on improving the health of society.

APTA is celebrating you. First things first — a great big thank you for your membership and all you do for the profession. Individually, you make an impact on patients' lives every day. And together we are improving the health of society through best practices, advocacy, education, and public awareness.
