Dr. Ira Gorman had the incredible opportunity to run into Regis DPT alumna, Lt. Col Danielle Anderson, whose journey from Regis University (Class of 2012) to NASA is nothing short of inspiring! 🚀

📢 Exciting International Collaboration at Regis DPT! 🌍🏥

This week, we had the honor of hosting faculty and students from Teikyo University in our Regis University Physical Therapy lab spaces! 🇯🇵🤝🇺🇸

Our visitors immersed themselves in hands-on learning alongside our DPT students, participating in:

✨ Dry Needling Lab – exploring this powerful intervention for pain and movement dysfunction.
🏥 Acute Care Simulation Lab – experiencing real-world patient scenarios in a high-fidelity hospital setting.
🧠 Neuroscience & Anatomy Labs – diving deep into the foundations of movement and function.

It was an incredible opportunity to exchange knowledge, strengthen global connections, and celebrate the universal language of healing through movement! 💙💛

Thank you, Teikyo University, for joining us—we can't wait for future collaborations! ✨
