Why Physiotherapy ?

I always liked to help people in need.  This is why I am also part of an association that helps children under 7 years and their families (with the help of the Costa Rican government) in the region of Herradura, San Gerardo, Los Angeles, and Canaan. The association serves them food and hands out powdered milk.

I believe that I enjoy Physical Therapy so much because I can help not only in one specific form, but I can give so many different kinds of support to people.  This could be outside activities, inside activities, and even water activities!

This career, for example, enables me to work with babies or pregnant women for early stimulation, with children that have any kind of handicap, or with people that had an accident so they can have as normal a life as possible.  Another kind of work would be to assist elderly people so that their end of life will be one of quality and not dependent on the bed.

A completely different, but also very interesting part, is to work with high performance athletes, or even in the field of esthetics or beauty in either hotels or special clinics.

The truth is that I consider that this profession will give me the proper tools to fulfill my dream of helping people, and doing it correctly with clarity.  I believe this is a great career, and I have no doubts that I should pursue it.
