Physiotherapy
A physiotherapist is a registered healthcare professional with expertise in the structure and movement of the human body. Physiotherapists work with people of all ages, including adults and children, to improve their physical mobility and address issues related to movement.
Physiotherapists can help adults and children:
Treatment and Rehabilitation: Physiotherapists assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of conditions affecting bones, muscles, nerves, lungs, and other body parts. This can include injuries, musculoskeletal problems (like back pain or arthritis), and neurological conditions (like stroke or brain injury).
Improved Movement and Function: Through physiotherapy techniques like exercise programs, manual therapy (massage or joint manipulation), and electrotherapy (ultrasound or TENS), physios help patients regain mobility, reduce pain and stiffness, and prevent future injuries.
Lifestyle Advice and Education: Physiotherapists can provide guidance on modifying daily activities to manage health conditions better. They may also prescribe aids and appliances or teach exercises for patients and caregivers to perform at home.
In essence, physiotherapists help adults and children move better, live healthier, and recover from injuries or manage chronic conditions.
