Physiotherapy, also known as physical therapy, is a healthcare profession aimed at promoting optimal mobility and physical function through the use of various therapeutic exercises, manual techniques, and education.

Physiotherapists work with individuals across all ages to diagnose and treat a wide range of health conditions that limit their ability to move or perform daily activities. These may include injuries, chronic diseases, neurological disorders, or recovery from surgery.

The primary goal of physiotherapy is to alleviate pain, improve or restore mobility, and prevent future injury or disease. This is achieved through personalized treatment plans that may involve exercises to improve strength and flexibility, manual therapy techniques such as massage or joint mobilization, and education on how to manage the condition at home.

Physiotherapy is a vital component of holistic healthcare, enhancing patients‘ quality of life by empowering them to actively participate in their recovery and maintain their physical well-being.
