Doctor of Physical Therapy

Physical therapists are “movement specialists” who help people improve mobility, manage pain, restore function and support lifelong health and wellness. As a physical therapist, you’ll use evidence-informed practice to assess movement, joint motion, muscle strength and endurance, heart and lung function, and the activities people need for daily living. At Maryville, you’ll prepare to provide compassionate, innovative care that improves lives and strengthens the health and wellness of your community.
