Nursing Into Physical Therapy? Good Option?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on March 1, 2010
I’ve been thinking about both professions and I really like both of them. I just want to know If i do go for a Bach. for nursing and perhaps try to apply for a grad school for physical therapy would be a good choice like a possible career path? I know I would need to take a couple of extra courses they require to be a PT but I would do it if I had to. I’m not sure but I would just get feedback on this.
Would It Be A Good Idea To Become A Personal Trainer?
Im almost 19, recent graduate from high school. I was thinking of a career as a physical therapy assistant for awhile… but now i’m starting to decide against it. Mostly because i’ve heard it is very rigorous and you won’t have time for a job and other things. Now i’m thinking i might enjoy a career as a certified personal trainer. I live in portland OR by the way. I guess my question is what do you need to get certified is it like getting an education in the traditional way, going to college getting a degree, etc. Would it be like an associate degree or something? Is it very challenging to become one?

Posted by admin in Careers in PT on February 17, 2010
I want to know what would be a good major for me in college if I want to teach for a little while, but also get two masters degrees in physical and occupational therapy?

I know that I will have to decide, and I will have to talk to an admissions counselor but in the meantime, can someone help me?
My Gpa Is 3.82, Do I Still Have A Chance Getting To Good Colleges?
I’m a senior in highschool in Saudi Arabia. The problem is that the ministry of education have always had the system where only the last year of highschool is calculated in the general high school certificate and this system continued for over than 20 years.
I used to have some good grades until I had discovered in my junior year that I have a mild to moderate case of spine deformity which can cause some pain if no serious action taken. So I went to physical therapy three times and went from a doctor to another and pain started to show up in my sophomore year Which resulted in getting 94% (that’s equivalent to 3.71 in the US system).
After that the ministry of education decided to calculate the GPA starting from the last 2 years instead of the last, if only I knew it’d happen I’d withdraw from school till my back gets better.
So I’m in my last year, I worked so hard that I started to burn out and get way too depressed.

What is good career for me to go into? I’m deciding between becoming a physical therapist, occupational therapist, and physician’s assistant. Does anyone know if getting a masters in physical therapy would be sufficient or is a doctorate going to be required soon?

Thank you!
What Are Some Good Alternative Medical Therapies For Back And Neck Pain?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on February 6, 2010
I have a herniated disc, a bulge in another part of my back or neck, my neck is straighter than it’s supposed to be. My back and neck muscles are all knotted up effecting my motor skills in my legs, weakness in my limbs, I have pain that spreads from my lower back and wraps around my abdomen.
I’ve done physical therapy twice, what they call manipulation, just of full body PT massage, I’ve gone to a chriopractor. I have an apoint at the med rehab clinic in a month. My doctor said I may possibly have to get a cortosone shot. What are some other options? I heard they can put the disc back in place, or surgery. I’m scared about all 3 because of the pain. Has anyone tried massage therapy or accupuncture? Do I have any other options?
