Eureka, Mo (PRWEB) December 26, 2011
The licensed Missouri physical therapists at the Sports and Physical Therapy Center in Eureka share a common goal: furthering their knowledge, skills and education for the benefit of their patients. In 2011, the team completed more than 85 hours of continuing education courses. This training enabled them to incorporate a number of new treatments within the practice and attain advanced certification.
Practitioners in the physical therapy field have an educational background in anatomy, physiology, biology, biomechanics and other key topics. All physical therapists are required to complete a graduate-level degree (master?s or higher), and must pass the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE) before they are eligible to practice. In Missouri, physical therapists are expected to meet additional standards to achieve state licensure. After doing so, licensed Missouri physical therapists must then complete a minimum of 30 hours of continuing education every two years.
At the Sports and Physical Therapy Center, team members routinely surpass their state-mandated minimum training requirements in an effort to bring a higher level of expertise to the clinic. Physical Therapist Jennifer Steffee studied Kinesio Taping
