October is National Physical Therapy Month

October is National Physical Therapy Month. This year, the campaign is all about #ChoosePT, a  hashtag that supports an effort to fight the national opioid epidemic, according to the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA).

A large portion of Fleet Feet Sports, Syracuse’s customer base are medical referrals and people in pain for a number of reasons. We understand medical providers want to help their patients find relief from their issues and that physical therapy is one non-invasive, non-medicated way to achieve that goal.

For the rest of the month, use the hashtag #ChoosePT and #fleetfeetsyr and we’ll repost some of our favorites from this important campaign.

For your patients who #ChoosePT instead of opioids, we offer experienced staff who can fit them for appropriate footwear, over-the-counter orthotic inserts and other medical tools to enhance their physical therapy sessions and keep them comfortable.

Please email Michele Maciejewski at michelem@fleetfeetsyracuse.com for more information, prescription pads or to schedule an office visit to learn more.
