Folsom Physical Therapy Seminars

A statement from the American Physical Therapy Association

Some Franklin D. Roosevelt wisdom to inspire us this Wednesday... We are all going through some rough seas, but we are encouraged seeing how people and companies have and continue to adapt and grow. We are encouraged knowing we all can and will be better.... #franklinroosevelt #inspiration #wednesday #humpday #growth #motivation #overcomer #waves #folsomphysicaltherapy #fpt #physicaltherapy

A lot has kept us busy this past month. Going through the uncertainties of a pandemic reminds us of what is certain: The people we love and those who inspire us are what matter most. ... Right now we want to take a moment to remember a mentor and friend to Folsom Physical Therapy & Training Center who passed away April 15, 2020 at the age of 93. Olaf Evjenth dedicated his life to the advancement of physical therapy and has been monumental in the development of our clinic's treatment model, treatment techniques, continuing education courses, and physical therapy philosophy. Olaf Evjenth worked with Freddy Kaltenborn in establishing the Nordic OMT System, Kaltenborn-Evjenth Concept. One of FPT's owners, Michael Moore, studied under Olaf for 2 years in Norway. For 26 consecutive years Olaf came to Folsom Physical Therapy & Training Center and held a four-day manual therapy course open to the physical therapy public. The remaining days of each week he would see complex patients in our clinic during the day and then have special 23 hour evening tutorials on manual therapy for our staff. Olaf will be missed, but his contributions will continue in physical therapy practice world wide.

Just wanted to let you all know that we missed you this weekend - and that we hope you are all safe and healthy! -Tim, Michael, Brigit, Angie, Eric & Christina

Had a great time yesterday with everyone that came out to Lower Quadrant Day 2 of the mini series. There are two more days of the Lower Quadrant and then in July we start Upper Quadrant 2. Physical therapists interested in continuing education focused on improving manual therapy, assessment, and treatment efficiency skills can call 916-355-8500 to sign up for the next course!
