10 Hr. Service Learning Check

1. West Star Physical Therapy Network
2. Observing patients while they get their massages, evaluations, exercises, ultra-sounds, heat/ice therapy, and help organize shelves.
3. The most important thing that I have learned so far are the different techniques/exercises that are used to get patients in good shape.  I have found out that each patient needs specialized exercises that fit her/his body type and problem.  You can never give the same exercises to the people that may have the same problem because everyone's body is different.  Specialized exercises allow the person to feel comfortable with handling pain or body weight.
