On this day 105 years ago, a bold group of women changed the future of physical therapy forever. 💪✨

On Jan. 15, 1921, our founders planted the seeds of what would become American Physical Therapy Association — the nation’s leading voice for PTs, PTAs, students, and the patients we serve.

From responding to wartime and public health challenges to advancing education, practice, and advocacy, our journey has been one of resilience, community, and impact. 🌍🤝 As we honor our past, we embrace the future with purpose.
