Physiotherapy

Physical therapy treats diseases or injuries that impair a person's mobility and capacity to carry out essential everyday tasks. PTs consult the patient's history and physical exam to make a diagnosis and create a care plan. Assistive devices, prostheses, orthoses, manual therapy, manipulation, mechanical devices like traction, education, electrophysical modalities such as heat, cold, electricity, sound waves, and radiation, as well as other treatments, are frequently used in PT management. Additionally, by creating fitness and wellness-focused programs for healthier and more active lifestyles, PTs work with individuals to stop the loss of mobility before it starts. They offer services to individuals and populations to develop, maintain, and restore maximum movement and functional ability throughout the lifespan.
