WELCOME TO TRAILS OF A TRAVEL PT!

Hello, I’m Dr. Adam Schwent! I am a traveling physical therapist. My wife, Paige, and I travel the United States in our RV on travel therapy contracts every 3-6 months. We created this blog to help individuals like us who want to pursue a career in physical therapy but also travel the U.S. and live life to the fullest. Having been a traveling therapist for six years now I have learned a lot, both in therapy and travel. We want to share our knowledge with those who are seeking help in the travel PT world or for those interested in the nomadic lifestyle that traveling brings.

WHAT IS TRAILS OF A TRAVEL PT?

Trails of a Travel PT was created for future or current Physical Therapists who wish to take their job on the road.

I want to give you insight into what it’s really like becoming/being a Travel PT. For me personally, I LOVE what I do and how I get to do it. And I hope you will too!

BUT WHAT IF I’M NOT A PHYSICAL THERAPIST?

No problem! My favorite thing about being a Travel PT is all the adventures I get to go on! I’ve been to 49 states and 41 national parks and counting. The U.S. has such a unique landscape, and I’ve been fortunate enough to explore a lot of it! Whether you are looking for fun excursions to do or the hike with the best view I will be able to give plenty of recommendations!
