At the core of our approach to physical therapy is the human movement system, which consists of physiological organ systems that interact to produce and support movement of the body and its parts. Movement science is the study of the movement system, and we believe physical therapists are the world’s movement system experts. Our vision is aligned with the vision of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), which is to “transform society by optimizing movement to improve the human experience.”
