For the past couple of years, I have been working with a physiotherapist to help with my bad left leg. The experience has been highly positive and has given me a direction on what I would like to pursue as a profession. It’s so interesting to me to see how, if you train correctly, it is so easy to bounce back from injuries and build strength. As I have learned, it can be so frustrating when you are healing from injury, and I want to be a part of helping people in their healing journey. I have learned how vital movement and flexibility can be for people, and as a physiotherapist, I feel that I can make a difference in people’s lives as they regain their ability and confidence after an injury.
Even though I know it will take me a while to study and get the proper training, I feel the effort would be worth it. My end goal would be to work directly with a major league sports team and help highly trained athletes do what they love the most! Even though that is my ultimate goal, regardless of the setting, I am confident that this career path would enable me to make a positive impact on people’s quality of life.
