World Physical Therapy Day
September 8 · Level 2 · #1897 of 2238
World Physical Therapy Day highlights how much movement and rehabilitation matter for health and independent living. It is a thank-you to the professionals who help people walk, move and live with less pain.
How it is celebrated: physiotherapists run open sessions, free advice stands and exercise events, and each year the global professional body picks a theme that national associations take up.
The date was chosen because the World Confederation for Physical Therapy was founded on 8 September 1951.
