A physical therapist works with an elder male black patient, helping him use an exercise ball to improve flexibility, balance, and core strength. Celebrating National Physical Therapy Month with Scerbo Physical Therapy & Sports Rehabilitation

By Dr. Frank J. Scerbo, PT, DPT ///

As described by the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), October is National Physical Therapy Month, a time to recognize the incredible work physical therapists (PTs), physical therapist assistants (PTAs), and students in the field do every day to help people move better, feel better, and live stronger. At Scerbo Physical Therapy & Sports Rehabilitation, we’re proud to celebrate the profession—and the people—who dedicate their lives to helping others recover, rebuild, and reach their goals.

Honoring the Professionals Who Keep America Moving

Physical therapists are movement experts. They help patients manage pain, recover from injury, and prevent future issues through personalized treatment plans that restore strength, mobility, and confidence. PTAs and students bring that same passion and precision to every session, helping create a supportive and motivating environment where healing truly happens.

Whether you’re an athlete rehabbing a sports injury, someone recovering from surgery, or just looking to move without pain, PTs and PTAs play a vital role in improving quality of life—one movement at a time.

Raising Awareness About the Power of Physical Therapy

National Physical Therapy Month is also about education and awareness. Millions of Americans still don’t realize that physical therapy is often a safe, effective, and non-surgical option for pain relief and recovery.

At ScerboPT, we use this month to remind our community that you don’t always need surgery—or a lifetime of medication—to feel better. Physical therapy can often be the first line of defense against pain and mobility problems.

Working closely with physicians, our certified therapists create treatment plans that are tailored to your needs, combining clinical expertise with compassionate care. From post-op rehabilitation to sports performance enhancement, we’re here to help patients take control of their health—without unnecessary procedures.

How We Celebrate at Scerbo PT

Throughout October, our team at ScerboPT celebrates by:

  • Highlighting success stories from our amazing patients.

  • Educating the community about the wide range of Physical Therapy services available.

  • Sharing tips for injury prevention, healthy movement, and active living on our social channels.

  • Encouraging people to ask questions and learn how Physical Therapy might be right for them.

We believe in shining a light on the profession and the powerful results it brings—because every recovery story deserves to be told.
