October is Physical Therapy Month, and at WSi Healthcare we’re proud to celebrate the professionals who help people move, recover, and live fuller lives. Physical Therapists (PTs) and Physical Therapist Assistants (PTAs) aren’t just part of the healthcare system, they’re often the reason patients can get back to work, return to their favorite activities, or simply enjoy daily life without pain.
Physical therapy makes an enormous impact:
Over 38% of adults in the U.S. have experienced some type of musculoskeletal condition that can benefit from physical therapy.
Nearly 8 in 10 patients who undergo PT after surgery report improved mobility and reduced complications.
The profession itself is growing rapidly, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics projecting a 15% increase in demand for PTs between now and 2032, much faster than the average for all jobs.
From sports and orthopedics to long-term care and corrections, PTs are on the frontlines of recovery, prevention, and patient empowerment. This month, we honor their skill, dedication, and resilience.
The Difference PTs Make
Physical therapists help stroke survivors walk again, guide post-surgical patients through tough recoveries, and coach older adults in preventing falls that could change their lives forever. In corrections and rural facilities, they often provide access to care that patients would not otherwise receive.
This kind of work is not optional, it is essential. With America’s aging population and rising demand for preventative healthcare, the role of PTs will only continue to grow.

Changing Lives, Together
Every day, we hear stories from PTs who made a difference: a young athlete who finally gets back on the field, an older adult who regains independence after a hip replacement, or a patient in long-term care who can walk again after months of therapy. Those success stories inspire us at WSi to keep building partnerships that matter for both patients and providers.
Our Promise - This Physical Therapy Month, we say thank you to the PTs and PTAs who change lives every single day. At WSi Healthcare, our promise is simple: to support PTs with opportunities that align with their goals and to back them with the stability, pay, and career growth they deserve.
