On Monday, October 7th, Lawrence County Executive David Morgan took a significant step by signing a proclamation that designates October as National Physical Therapy Month within the county. This initiative aims to pay tribute to the dedicated physical therapists who tirelessly contribute to the well-being of the community. Their commitment not only aids individuals in recovery but also emphasizes the importance of maintaining an active and healthy lifestyle.
The event saw the participation of numerous physical therapists from the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) representing Tennessee’s South-Central District. Their presence underscored the collaborative effort to raise awareness about the essential role that physical therapy plays in promoting health and wellness. Through this proclamation, Executive Morgan highlighted the invaluable services provided by these professionals and encouraged residents to recognize the benefits of physical therapy in their lives.
