What is Orthopedic Therapy?
Orthopedic therapy is a type of physical therapy that focuses on the treatment of conditions and injuries that affect the musculoskeletal system. This includes the bones, joints, muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Orthopedic therapists use a variety of techniques to help patients reduce pain, improve range of motion, and prevent further injuries. Orthopedic therapy can be used to treat a wide variety of conditions, including arthritis, back pain, fractures, joint replacements, and sports injuries.
What can I do with a degree in Orthopedic Therapy?
Orthopedic therapists may work in hospitals, clinics, private practices, or rehabilitation centers. They may also work with sports teams or organizations to help prevent injuries and improve performance. Orthopedic therapists may specialize in treating certain conditions or groups such as children, the elderly, or athletes. Some orthopedic therapists may choose to conduct research or teach at a university.
Different levels of Orthopedic Therapy degrees
Orthopedic therapy degrees are available at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Undergraduate Orthopedic Therapy programs typically last four years and include coursework in anatomy, physiology, and kinesiology. Graduate Orthopedic Therapy programs usually last two to three years and include additional coursework in orthopedic assessment and intervention. Some programs also offer clinical rotations that allow students to gain hands-on experience treating patients. Orthopedic therapists must be licensed in most states and may need to pass a national exam to become certified.
