PHYSIOTHERAPY INVOLVES the assessment, treatment, and prevention of human movement disorders, restoring normal function and minimising dysfunction and pain in adults and children. It aims to enable them to achieve the highest possible activity in their lives, preventing injuries and promoting health. Physiotherapists use skilled evaluation, skilled hands-on techniques including mobilisation, manipulation, massage, dry needling, individually designed exercises, sophisticated equipment such as ultrasound, TENS, laser and Deep oscillation therapy, heat, ice, strapping among many others, in order to relieve pain and assist healing and recovery.
Physiotherapy can aid in recovery of injuries from the initial phase of injury up until the end of the recovery in final phase rehabilitation.
Additionally, physiotherapists aim to empower the patient with knowledge about their condition and to put their health in their own hands.
