Just a girl in physical therapy school 🥹🩺

I realize that I talk about my grad school experience a lot on here, but I never really get to show yall what do I in school often, so I decided to change that ! Here is small clip of a little bit of what my life looks like in physical therapy school or what I like to call “girl therapy”!🥹 this is a part of my life that is really near and dear to my heart and I really love what I do, no matter how much it stresses me out 🥲 where are all my healthcare girls and my other PT girlies ?!?!

... Read morePhysical therapy school is a challenging yet rewarding journey filled with learning, growth, and connection. As a student, I often find myself navigating through rigorous coursework and practical experiences that shape my future in healthcare. The term 'girl therapy' resonates with many in our cohort, highlighting the importance of support among women in this demanding field. From hands-on techniques to understanding patient care, each day presents new opportunities to refine our skills and deepen our knowledge. Additionally, the camaraderie built among fellow students fosters an empowering environment, with discussions ranging from treatment methodologies to self-care practices for mental well-being. As I share this glimpse into my life, I also want to encourage other women pursuing similar paths. Join communities that support women in STEM and medicine, like #womeninstem and #womeninmedicine, where shared experiences can inspire and motivate one another. Engaging with others can provide insights into managing stress and balancing school responsibilities with personal life. In this ever-evolving field of physiotherapy, staying connected through social media and online forums can be a powerful tool. Networking helps us stay informed about industry trends while also creating a sense of unity in our shared aspirations. Ultimately, whether it’s through social media connections or in-person study groups, embracing this 'girl therapy' is essential not just for our education, but for our overall well-being as we navigate this challenging yet fulfilling profession.
