University of Santo Tomas. BS degree has accreditation level of 2 valid until 2008. It is accredited by FCCPT (credentialing commission). On the other hand, our masteral degree is not accredited and began only 2002. UST is the only university in the Philippines with an MSPT. UP has none. I’ve read other sources that 2002 and below graduated do not need a masteral degree but 2002 and above graduates need a masteral degree. I also read that a minimum entry level of at least masters level for foreign physical therapist desiring to work abroad. If this is the case, then technically no Filipino can work in the US as a PT if they are 2002 and above graduates. I believe that there might be a way or alternative to help Filipinos in working there since PT abroad is in demand.

Dec 25
Is this ultrasound addicting? Can some people get that addicted to it even if they have less pain? Someone who had their left subscapula hurting them all the time without an injury and this person always wanted the ultrasound all the time. Do you think the physical therapists has the right to cut off the ultrasound completely? Please help.
I’ve been doing physical therapy for a year now. I’m a 16 year old female and I hurt my shoulder playing softball. I did physical therapy yesterday and my shoulder is still hurting me today really bad to where my arm has throbbing pain. They did ultrasound, put Electra pads on my shoulder. Could it have done something to my shoulder to make it hurt bad? Please help me.
