Therapy Abroad - Thailand

My experience with Therapy Abroad has exceeded my expectations in every way possible! It was the perfect balance between gaining hands on clinical experience and exploring the beauty and culture of Thailand. The amount of support that was provided during this trip and the friends that came along with it made me feel safe and at ease all the way on the other side of the world. It is amazing how many activities this program fits into just two weeks: snorkeling, kickboxing, cooking thai food, visiting temples, walking around local villages, shopping on walking streets and getting hugged by an elephant in addition to clinical components such as practicing thai massage and learning about traditional medicine, observing OT and PT sessions, planning and implementing Tykes camp, and spending a day at an incredible day program in Chiang Mai, there is so much to do and learn! Words cannot describe just how amazing this trip was - Am, Dome, and Toon (three Thai folks) met us in Phuket upon our arrival and didn't leave our side until we were through security inPhuket two weeks later. The people are fun, knowledgeable, and make your safety and enjoyment the upmost priority.
