Physiotherapy

What is physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy is a health care profession concerned with human function and movement and maximizing potential:

  • It uses physical approaches to promote, maintain and restore physical, psychological and social well-being, taking account of variations in health status
  • It is science-based, committed to extending, applying, evaluating and reviewing the evidence that underpins and informs its practice and delivery
  • The exercise of clinical judgment and informed interpretation is at its core.
Physiotherapists are highly skilled in treating movement and neuro-musculoskeletal disorders. Pain often accompanies a movement disorder, and physiotherapists can help correct the disorder and relieve the pain.
