From stroke victims to star athletes, almost everyone who needs medicine at some point needs physical therapy. It is pure healing, teaching people to get through pain and discomfort through the use and understanding of their own bodies. But the medicine world takes physical therapy very seriously and the US federal government requires you to be certified. Many states have their own certification process as well. Wherever you live, physical therapists must be qualified and at times need to be college graduates. And that is a good thing, because becoming a physical therapist is a rigorous process offering you deep rewards.
