Physical Therapists help people with the rehabilitation process following injury, illness, or surgery. Part of the responsibility of the physical therapist is to assist people in regaining their range of motion, rebuilding strength, help with pain reduction and, most importantly, helping people return to their previous levels of activity and function. In addition to caring professional therapy, empshasis is given to patient education and injury prevention. Discussions include the proper use of exercise, correct posutre, home and work ergonomics and safety.

As the population of San Juan Island has grown, San Juan Physical Therapy has expanded to meet the needs of the community. Julia Thompson joined Suzie's operation in 1999. Julia's expertise includes postural education and treating patients with lower back pain. Julia and Suzie also provide physical therapy consultation and treatment at the Islands Convalescent Center.
