Explore Columbia, SC

From Greenville's foothill setting to Charleston's tidal waterways, South Carolina gives therapy travelers several different ways to picture daily life. Charleston's academic community brings together physical and occupational therapy, rehabilitation research, and clinical education, adding professional depth to the Lowcountry's familiar historic image. The state also has a strong regional personality outside that area. Columbia offers museums and university events in the Midlands, while the Upstate combines smaller towns with mountain scenery. Along the coast, seafood, beaches, and Gullah Geechee traditions reflect a landscape shaped by water and generations of community life. Congaree's floodplain forest provides another distinctive natural setting inland. Arts festivals, local markets, and regional cooking make worthwhile introductions to South Carolina even when a beach or mountain trip is not on the calendar.
