Physical Therapy Principles

Exam Bank

Course Introduction

Physical Therapy Principles introduces students to the foundational concepts underpinning the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of movement dysfunctions. The course covers topics such as basic anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and kinesiology as they relate to physical therapy practice. Emphasis is placed on understanding therapeutic intervention strategies, goal setting, patient safety, and evidence-based decision-making. Students will explore the ethical and professional responsibilities of a physical therapist, while developing problem-solving and critical thinking skills essential for individualized patient care. This course serves as the groundwork for advanced clinical skills and specialty practice in physical therapy.
