    Hi, I'm really really interested in becoming a physical therapist! I just wanted to say thank you for this very informative video, it really gave me and I'm sure many other viewers who are curious about the field an inside look into physical therapy! I was wondering what the main difference between physical therapy and athletic training was. I really want to become a physical therapist, but I also have a passion for kinesiology.

      Thank you for enjoying the video! We are glad you appreciated it! And, to answer your question, the main difference between physical therapy vs. athletic training comes down to a few things. With athletic training, your main patient population is the athletes that you treat. You learn acute management strategies in addition to rehab principles to keep your players healthy throughout the season. The treatment environment is an even split between the field and the athletic training room. On the physical therapy side of things, you get deep into rehab principles and your patient population spans from pediatrics to elderly. You have options to explore different settings from an outpatient clinic to a hospital, to a more gym-based facility, and so on. Typically, your hours as a PT are pretty straight forward. With athletic training, your hours can change depending on the needs of the team; typically, in fact, you are traveling with the team. Both are really great professions. You can also gather more info on the APTA and NATA websites. THANK YOU!

      Physical therapist has a more concentration of getting patients back to activities from different perspectives, like musculoskeletal, cardiac and neuro. Athletic training has a wider range of working environments, like with professional teams, with sports medicine teams in hospitals, industries and schools. most of the times, the work is around a specific group of people like workers and athletes and it involves components like performance, emergency action, nutrition, general medical condition etc.There's a lot of overlap, but one big difference is PTs can bill while ATs can't. Hope it was helpful!

I am a 26 year old woman living a healthy lifestyle and after many doctors opinions and no relief, this video has led me to think physical therapy might be the answer. Please let me know if this is something you are willing to discuss with me. Thank you!
