So what does it actually mean? A dissection of the complete nervous system. Nervous system ph

The physical therapy students at VCU run a pro bono clinic in town called CARES clinic. Physical therapists volunteer to help PT students bring affordable care to those in need. I have volunteered there in the past and it is always so much fun. I hope to go back there soon! October is also Physical Therapy Month. What better timing?? Thank you to the PT students at VCU for offering this to our community and thank you to my patients for making this donation possible. Check

Our community needs each other now more than ever. At times like these, I think to myself, 'What can I do?' One of my visions of starting Inspire PT was to be more accessible for the community.
