Who We Are
We are committed to building a community that advances the profession of physical therapy to optimize the experience of aging.
The Rolex Cosmograph Daytona ref. 116500 features a 40mm stainless steel Oyster case with a Triplock screw-down crown with three sealing zones to ensure that the precision technology inside is protected from water damage up to a depth of 100 m. The replica rolex Daytona's Oyster case also includes a sturdy screw-down caseback, and screw-down chronograph pushers to prevent accidental operation underwater.
Geriatrics is a rapidly growing specialty in physical therapy. APTA Geriatrics, An Academy of the American Physical Therapy Association, supports those therapists, assistants, and students who work with an ageing population in roles of advocacy, direct patient care, consultation, supervision, and education. The Academy was formed in 1978 to address the needs of the physical therapy practitioner working with the ageing client. Today, it represents and serves over 5,500 physical therapists, physical therapist assistants, and other health care providers interested in the area of geriatric physical therapy.
