Why Are So Many Physical Therapists Experiencing Burnout?

[@ramblingsofacaticorn497]

Some of the stuff under avoidable reasons seems somewhat unavoidable too. Physical therapy is a taxing job especially for young physios. Moreover, there are many competitors who promise "quick" fixes which distort patient expectations. I wouldn't recommend this field to anyone who wants to live a 'soft' life. Corporate workers get paid alot more or the same amount and can often get away with doing the bare minimum and working from home can also be an option in some industries.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. I believe the authors of the Systematic Review considered anything outside of demographics as "avoidable." I agree that PT is taxing. The majority of helping professions do have a high risk of burnout.
