What things do Physical Therapists lift? What is the average weight of an object!


Question: This is one of my career choices but Im unsure because I heard they must be in good physical condition because lifting objects are apart of the job.

forget lifting objects. you'll be lifting people and some of them are 300 lbs. or more. this doesn't mean you have to lift 300 lbs of dead weight. you'll learn how to help people lift their own weight, roll over, sit up, etc. and you'll learn how to leverage your own weight to avoid getting injured in the process.

if you care about helping people, this could be a good career choice for you.

idk

I am not sure about this but i do hope that your question does get resolved!!!! ((Good Luck))

all parts of a person body, so legs arms wheel chairs, so the 40 lb rule and then need to people would work here.
