I was previously interested in a career in Chiropractic for a few reasons. I liked the idea of hands on healing(to bad this turned out to be mostly quackery.) I do like a holistic but research driven model of care. Another thing that attracted to me was Chiropractic was that the scope of practice would have also allowed me to offer lifestyle advice specifically regarding nutrition, exercise, and other things about living healthy. Sort of taking on the role of a health coach while providing 'treatment.'
Well since Chiropractic is not a good career choice I thought I should ask you guys about physical therapy. Obviously the care is hands on and I can come at it with a holistic viewpoint. But I guess I'm unsure of everything that a Physical Therapist does. I know some of the basics like providing exercises for rehabilitation but I don't feel like I have a full picture of what it is PTs do.
For the record I'm a 21 year old sophmore in missouri.
