Thailand UWEC AAC Program 2023

Therapy Abroad does such a great job organizing time to work with local organizations to provide therapy, go on fun excursions, and have unique cultural experiences specific to the country you visit. Safety, housing, and food has never been an issue when traveling with Therapy Abroad. They provide great communication and care for the students, supervisors, and facilitators. Reflecting back on my trip, I learned so much about speech therapy from my peers and supervisors. Working with kids at the Dulabhatorn Foundation in Thailand made me increase my love for this profession even more and in so thankful I was able to have such a wonderful experience.

Pros
  • Meeting new people
  • Experiencing a new culture
  • Expanding my clinical speech therapy experiences
Cons
  • Expensive flights

Physical Therapy

Therapy abroad helped me in so many ways! I learned so much about the physical therapy profession and the amazing people of San Ignacio, Belize! I was very excited to learn about the culture in Belize and got just that! Being able to be exposed to such a diverse and medically complex population was absolutely vital in my experience with therapy abroad! I was able to grow, learn, and adapt from patient to patient.This would not have been possible without therapy abroad! I absolutely would recommend therapy abroad to anyone and fully plan on attending again!

Pros
  • Encouraging and optimistic staff
  • Easy and professional communication
  • Runs smoothly

Therapy Abroad Physical Therapy in Belize!!

As a physical therapy student, I highly recommend taking a service trip with Therapy Abroad! Everyone we interacted with was extremely helpful, friendly, and excited to have us in Belize! The lectures we had on the country's culture and healthcare were very informative and useful as we interacted with people in the community. Treating all of our patients in various settings was my favorite part of the trip because we got to build relationships with them and other members of our group!! I also enjoyed sightseeing within San Ignacio and eating dinner in local restaurants each night! Therapy Abroad helped everything go so smoothly!!
