@WicksAB I’d only met her a handful of times, but each time I was more and more impressed with her knowledge, spirit, and care for this profession! So sorry for your loss, Andy.

@Retlouping @RoyFilmDPT It seems like you can only message people who are following you (unless you’re verified.) I can message @PTPintcast , but not @Retlouping or @RoyFilmDPT

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

I volunteered with @SpecialOlympics of Michigan for State Summer Games and coincidentally worked along side a pediatric PT. @SpOlympicsMI

What’s your physical therapist origin story. In one ☝️ tweet?

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

@MartyMcPhysio Just remember all those CIs who didn’t get out of your way! 😂 it will help recenter you

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

@PTPintcast @Sarah_Parker01 I can see you doing this

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

An adult PT at my clinic told me she was moved to tears watching me treat a baby the other day, and that’s just the sweetest thing to say.

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

@AlyssaaErinn It’s like caregiver/compassion fatigue but for yourself. Sending good vibes.

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

@OnTapPhysio I had it in December. Kicked my butt. Hope you feel better soon.

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

Even though I won’t be on the executive board going forward, I am so excited to see the continued progress of @LongCOVIDPhysio! This is a great group to be steering the ship!

[Long COVID Physio @LongCOVIDPhysio]

We are excited to announce our new team starting July 2023, including the executive board and committees.

I got a late start to #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth so I'll try and make up for it with some regular posts the rest of the month on various topics based on research but also lived experience. Just raw numbers/stats can often numb people to how these things play out in real life.

[Ted DeChane, DPT @TedDeChaneDPT]

One of the most important @LongCOVIDPhysio videos to date. This is a must watch for any rehab clinician working with #LongCovid and #MECFS

Today, on #LongCovidAwarenessDay, I ask that rehab clinicians around the world familiarize themselves with Post-exertional symptom exacerbation (PEM/PESE), learn screening techniques, & recognize the limitations (read: harm) in exercise as a treatment for those who have PEM/PESE.

[Long COVID Physio @LongCOVIDPhysio]

Today is the first #LongCOVIDAwarenessDay to raise visibility and awareness of the global scale of #LongCOVID affecting more than 65 million people around the world, as well as their families and society. Today we join our community in solidarity 🖤💚🤍
