October is National Physical Therapy Month

Every October, we celebrate National Physical Therapy Month to raise consumer awareness about the many benefits of physical therapy. It’s also a great opportunity to appreciate what PTs, PTAs, and students do to transform lives.

This year’s ChoosePT campaign theme, PT For Future Me, highlights physical therapy’s role in enhancing movement and function in people of every age and ability, promoting resilience throughout the lifespan. It emphasizes prevention, wellness, and the improvement of strength and mobility to support all aspects of work, life, and play. This suite of ChoosePT-branded assets is available to help you amplify this year’s theme in your sphere of influence and celebrate your professional pride.

From first steps to your later years, physical therapy helps you stay strong, mobile, and
ready for whatever comes next. Want to live a stronger, healthier life? Physical therapy
can help. “PT for Future Me,” a new ChoosePT campaign brought to you by the American
Physical Therapy Association, highlights physical therapy’s many roles across the lifespan.

  • Childhood & Adolescence – Physical therapy supports children of all ages and abilities, helping them build strength, confidence, and healthy habits that can last a lifetime.
  • Early Adulthood – Whether staying active and exercising, recovering from injuries, or preparing for major life changes like pregnancy or childbirth, young adults can turn to physical therapy to move better, feel stronger, reduce discomfort, prevent injuries, and support their overall well-being.
  • Middle Adulthood – Physical therapy helps adults manage pain and mobility concerns so they can stay strong, active, and fully engaged in the lives they’re building.
  • Older Adulthood – Staying active and confident is vital for aging well. Physical therapy helps older adults prevent and overcome falls and live better with chronic
    conditions, so they can stay mobile and independent and fully enjoy the
    moments that matter.
