I believe pt was born out of chiropractic medicine
Um, no, not even close. Conceptually, PT started in Sweden in the early 1800's, led by Per Henrik Ling. Sweden began registering the early version of Physical Therapists in 1887; in 1894 the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy was founded in Great Britain. The polio epidemic and World War I brought the need for extensive rehabilitation to those affected, and modern PT was born in the US. In 1921 what is now known as the American Physical Therapy Association was founded by Mary McMillan. The profession has grown and is now well-established worldwide.
