In recognition of April as National Youth Sports Safety Month, MomsTeam has asked 30 experts to write a blog answering two questions: first, how or why did they get into their field, and second, how have they made a difference in the life of a youth athlete in the past year.
Today, we hear from Keith Cronin, a physical therapist at SSM-Select Physical Therapy in St. Louis, Missouri, and a MomsTeam expert.
By Keith Cronin, DPT, CSCS
A physical therapist explains how his own long history of sports injuries prompted his career choice and helps him relate to injured
athletes,
especially those who stubbornly resist a PT's advice, as he had
done.
