Because physical therapists are experts in movement and function, they do not confine their talents to treating people who are ill.  A large part of a physical therapist's program is directed at preventing injury, loss of movement, and even surgery.  Physical therapists work as consultants in industrial settings to improve the design of the workplace and reduce the risk of workers overusing certain muscles or developing low back pain.  They also provide services to athletes at all levels to screen for potential problems and institute preventive exercise programs.
