So What Do HAPTA and APTA Do for Us, Anyhow?

Dad, what did you used to do?
I was a physical therapist, son

What’s a physical therapist?
We were clinicians who worked in the medical profession and restoring movement and mobility to persons with disabilities, folks who were victims of diseases, injuries and birth defects.  We worked in hospitals, schools and sport teams. Some of us even had our own clinics. A physical therapist had his or her pick of anywhere to live and work in the country and the world.
