Before the first patient of the day, a physical therapist needs two things: coffee, and a goniometer within reach. This physical therapist mug keeps one of them hot and turns the other into a love note.
The goniometer, the hinged joint-angle tool that lives in every PT's pocket, is bent round into one big friendly heart: two flat arms lined with bold tick marks curl up into the lobes and meet at the top, with the round hinge disc sitting at the heart's point. Hopeless floats above in a bouncy rounded script, and ROMANTIC sits underneath in chunky capitals with ROM picked out in the second ink. Clean flat cartoon drawing in two bold inks, with no numbers anywhere on the tool.
The design wraps both sides, so the joke faces out whichever hand picks it up.
Buying for a PT? Set it beside a Valentine's breakfast, hand it to a new DPT graduate, or leave it on the desk of the colleague who measures everything.
Filled to the brim, measured to the degree.
