Physical therapy, often abbreviated as PT, is a healthcare profession that focuses on the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of individuals with various physical conditions and functional impairments. The goal of physical therapy is to promote, maintain, or restore physical function and mobility, as well as to alleviate pain and prevent further injury.

Physical therapists (PTs) are trained healthcare professionals who work with patients of all ages and backgrounds.

PTs may work in various settings, including hospitals, clinics, rehabilitation centers, schools, and private practices.
