I was told 5️⃣ years ago by a classmate that, A podcast talking to PTs over a beer 🍺 “Won’t be something any “real PTs” actually listen to.” As an experiment 🔬 retweet 🔄 this if you’ve EVER listened 👂🏾 to one☝🏻episode from us & it brought you value 🙏🏻. #PhysicalTherapy
Thank you @ChrisMurphyCT for signing onto the bipartisan letter to make expansion of telehealth services permanent. This will make access to PT services much easier for many #Medicare pts for now and the future.
@APTAtweets officially launched its new brand today, including its website (https://t.co/fFPA4LtQQ1) and social media presence. This is an evolution of APTA's long standing commitment to excellence in physical therapy. Last logo was from mid 1990s and had a great 25 year run!
Hey #PTFAM, first off - I hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy. Does anyone have resources on PTservices for neuromyelitis optica? Thanks in advance! @APTANeuroPT
Many members are at odds about APTA’s role on “social issues,” and how to clearly define them. This is why APTA has a House of Delegates, to determine APTA’s positions. I encourage all members to contact your chief delegate to make your voice heard: https://t.co/wgLxJhJC1Z 1/2

30yr old woman with 5 years finger tip pain at rest and ++ filing nails / manicure, temp sensitivity - pain occurs radiates proximally into finger. Normal NCSs and MRI CSp (but told maybe “nerve damage” 🙄 by neurologist). 5 sec exam today gave her the answer - pics show?
Can we all just take a moment to acknowledge Chip & Jo Gaines? True power couple - they actually enjoy home improvement projects together. Just barely got through putting an office chair together with my husband @JustSolis 😂 @joannagaines@chipgaines

Just how easy is it to be a part of the Flash Action Strategy this year? It is truly just a few clicks away! Let your legislators know about bill H.R. 2802, adding PT to the National Health Services Corps student loan repayment program! The campaign is happening 9/18 and 9/19‼️🎉
I have recently started using a bruised banana as an analogy for bone bruising and stress reactions. The banana may look normal on the outside just like a bone on X Ray , once you peel the skin back it can reveal a bruise. ( on MRI or bone scan)
