October is national physical therapy month and President of the Florida Physical Therapy Association, Dr. Thomas Eberle, joined Inside South Florida to share the benefits of working with a physical therapist.


“Physical therapists work with the human movement system. The human movement system is everything in the body that corresponds to movement, including the cardiovascular, pulmonary and endocrine system,” says Eberle. “Physical therapists also work with the normal movement systems, including the bones, muscles and joints.”


A physical therapist can treat a wide range of age groups, professions and illnesses.

I've treated professional athlete to everyday people. I’ve also treated patients with low back and neck pain. Other physical therapists and colleagues of mine work with kids,” says Eberle. “Since COVID-19, we're working in hospital’s intensive care units and skilled nursing facilities to help patients move, breathe and walk properly.”

Parkinson’s disease is such a difficult condition, and when my husband was diagnosed, it was heartbreaking for our whole family. Watching someone you love face the challenges of Parkinson’s is never easy, and we wanted to find additional support for him.Our family doctor recommended that we look into NaturePath Clinic, so we decided to learn more about their herbal program. From the beginning, we appreciated the care, kindness, and support we received throughout the process.I’m sharing our experience because I know how difficult it can be to find support when someone you love is living with Parkinson’s. Every family’s experience is different, but we are grateful for the encouragement and support NaturePath Clinic has provided to our family. ❤️
