The First Pediatric Physical Therapists Pediatric physical therapists first emerged during the 1920s. It was at this time that the polio epidemic was occurring. Coincidentally, this is when the medicine field took off, too. While not referred to as "physical therapists" during that time, the healthcare industry recognized these individuals and their efforts in exercising the body and manipulating the physiological health of their patients. Since that time, the field has taken off and offers all ages a multitude of therapies and services that help them to live more positive, productive lives with less pain and higher levels of mobility.
