The Foundation for Physical Therapy Research funds research and develops researchers to optimize movement and health.
About us
Physical therapy improves quality of life, health, and movement. Research makes the profession of physical therapy stronger by defining the value of physical therapy, providing data to help professionals deliver the best possible care, and developing innovative treatments and approaches. FPTR's mission is to fund research and develop researchers to optimize movement and health. FPTR is an independent 501(c)(3) governed by a Board of Trustees. Our work would not be possible without the guidance and expertise of an extraordinary group of volunteers who serve on our board and those who serve on special committees. Many have first-hand experience as past recipients of Foundation funding. Our team also includes the people that carry out the Foundation’s day-to-day operations and strategic plan — the Foundation’s staff.
