I have been very excited about this interview for quite some time with Dr. Mary Frances Roebuck PT, DPT. Mary Frances is a PT in New York City and works with dancers! She is also my former colleague from South College DPT school. She was gracious enough to provide pictures from classes she teaches as…

What to pack in your Home Health Kit!

When I started this current home health assignment, my friend Kristen told me to ask about if the company provides a home health kit. This is a GREAT question to ask during interviews as well as if they have recommendations for what to pack in the kit. My company told me they were planning on…

Physical Therapy in Figure Skating

How to nail the Home Health interview!

Now that I have been working my first home health assignment for a whopping 1.5 months, I’m basically a pro. Totally kidding, however, I have learned how to prepare for potential HH interviews!

Pain with Sex: Conversations with a Pelvic PT

I was really wanting to dive further into common pelvic health issues that are either not talked about enough (i.e. pain with sex), due to embarrassment or the topic being considered “taboo”, or issue that are so common they are typically normalized when they shouldn’t be (i.e. incontinence). I had the pleasure of interviewing Dr.…

What the Health: Pelvic health PT

One thing I love about the field of physical therapy is that there are so many areas one can focus on and specialize in. I chose travel therapy because I wasn’t sure what setting I wanted to be in, but I didn’t even think of all the areas I could potentially specialize in as well!…

Travel and LDR

One of the negatives to travel is long distance relationships. Don’t listen to the haters who say they never work out. This doesn’t exclusively refer to just romantic relationships either. When you travel, you move from family, friends, and yes your partner if you have one. Sometimes this can take a toll on you being…

I had Covid-19 (and it sucked)

If you follow me on social media, you know that I just got out of quarantine after testing positive for COVID-19 and wanted to share my experience with this virus. My symptoms were thankfully mild for the most part, but still present. I get tested twice a week with a PCR so on Mondays and…
