“Physiotherapists deal with the injustices that human bodies are subjected to by no fault of their own.” Michael Landry, World Physio President (non-verbatim) 👨🏻🏫
To inspire physical change, we need to draw out motivation from the inside of a person because they need to work for it. It is our responsibility to craft a sustainable self-management plan for them to maintain all these changes acquired while they are under our care. 💪🏽
I agree with Michael that is befitting to use the term “an inspiration of physiotherapists” as a collective noun for us physios, like “a flock of birds” or “a school of fish”. 🎏
