{National Physical Therapy Month}

I wish I knew the exact reason that pushed me into this profession. . 🤔 . .here are a few influences:
• I wanted to help people & work in the healthcare field, but Med school was out of the question and Nursing was not something I thought I would like.
• I wanted to work with Athletes so bad (hence my undergraduate degree in Athletic Training).
Now I have the privilege of working with a different kind of athlete (MOMs).
• My cousins (ex)wife was/is a PT and I thought she was the coolest former gymnast & made PT sound like the coolest profession.
• My best friend wanted to be a PT so why not look at schools together & why not both be PTs together. (())
🤷🏼‍♀️
Regardless what the reason. . . .even during the most stressful times during PT school I never once questioned my choice for this profession
((ok...ok...there was that one time 3rd block Neuro Anatomy that send me into a mental breakdown....but a few special ladies helped me through that)). (( ))
I love what I do and I would not change it for anything.
Thankful for the flexibility to grow my family.
Grateful for the challenge for continued growth and the opportunity to always learn.
To all my fellow PTs, let’s continue teaching and spreading our knowledge on the importance of movement/function of our bodies.

{Reality Check}
•
Besides that rocking chair that you have seen in the last two posts. . . . .this my friends is my next most used place in my house.
Postpartum “self care” looks very different but it’s so very important mommas (& daddy’s).
Take the time.
Ask for help
&
Be diligent about the healing process.
So often I have mommy’s in my clinic that did not take these first two weeks seriously.
If you just had a baby. . . .the amount of “trauma” your body endured is a lot worse then that Rotator Cuff Surgery your uncle head & yet no one is taking it as seriously.
If you have not had a baby “yet” Ask Away about my favorite products!?!
If you are in the thick of it with me & or have been here before. . . . .What where your favorite products?!?!?
Also. . . . .so Thankful for a master bathroom. . . . .because this is my space.
