Abstract:

Many things happen in your body when you exercise. It is not just your muscles that get a workout. Almost every system in your body improves because of exercise. Physical therapists make the most of these changes. They provide movement-based treatments for a very wide range of conditions. In this article, we discuss how physical therapy came about, we explain where you might find physical therapists and what kinds of conditions they help with, and we describe how movement can help our bodies. Recent scientific advances certainly have people moving in a healthy direction!
