Physical therapy started as a female-only profession
The American Women’s Physical Therapeutic Association was founded in 1921, in part as a response to WWI.

By 1922, the name was changed to the American Physiotherapy Association, at which point men were able to join.

Physical therapy incorporates massage, but not how you may think
Physical therapists are trained massage therapists, but this isn’t the spa day kind of massage that may come to mind. Our physical therapist use massage to decrease tightness and tone and improve tissue mobility of specific muscles that may be inflamed and causing you pain.
