Physiotherapy

Our fortunate physical therapy interns have been able to shadow therapists during their day-to-day interactions with high profile athletes from their favorite sports teams.

Working with a vast team of medical staff, including doctors’ physical therapist, trainers and chiropractors, you will be geared to learn from their experience which will help you build on your future career.
