I see #FMLA used often related to physical ailments being faced by a person or someone to whom they are a caregiver...but what about #mentalhealth? What would this look like? Would you go to #primarycare ? Would you go to a #psychiatrist or #psychologist? Easy, hard for support?


If the recommended dose of iron in teen boys is 15mg why are iron supplements of 65mg elemental iron 1-3x/day recommended for anemia? And why do I see things about not consuming more than 40-45mg? Seems conflicting. @TheFuelPhysio #nutrition #sportsnutrition


Anyone out there using @athenahealth for outpatient PT, OT and/or SLP? Looking at a transition and this is under consideration. (My guess is anything is better than @Cerner 🤬)

Vaccines don’t prevent you catching viruses, they prevent them from killing you! Why is this so hard for some to grasp! 🤦‍♂️

Yep and not just the spine… shoulders, knees, hips, necks you name it all not being used enough! Perversely LACK of use is a key driver for many things we label as OVER use!

I think that one of the many key issues with back pain is that the spine isn't being used enough in today's society.

We experience the world thru movement. This experience looks like fun one! A great representation - this deserves your retweet.

To my athletic trainers and sports PTs: is there new evidence to support #ultrasound in improving outcomes (especially with stretching, ROM and overall outcomes) in athletic/sports rehab? #nata #sportsPT #athletictraining #physicaltherapy


Getting more intrigued regarding nutrition and its nuances. Found this interesting @TheFuelPhysio


Commander echo vs Lafayette vs microfet for #manualmuscletesting? What’s best? Looking to quantify eval but isokinetic not an option. Other options: Kiio? #dynamometer #sciencePT #EBP #EBP2 #physicaltherapy #MMT #physio #DPTstudent Other ways to improve objectivity?

Thank you @CarsonDaly for letting men know 1. It’s okay to talk about #anxiety and 2. Medication isn’t the only therapy available #CBT on.apa.org/2oYFPWo


Managing and building a successful practice goes much further than clinical expertise and is clearly outside of our entry-level degrees #cashPT #bizPT #leadership #PPSmember ppsimpact.org/stepping-back-…
