Physiotherapy

About Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy, alternatively referred to as Physical Therapy, is a therapeutic approach administered by physiotherapists. This method places a greater emphasis on addressing patients' health concerns through physical therapy interventions, such as body movements, stretches, and programs focused on enhancing strength and flexibility, as opposed to relying solely on pharmaceutical treatments. The physiotherapist assesses patients' bodily functions and health conditions, particularly those affecting mobility and pinpoints the root cause of injury and thus conducts procedures to maximize physical potential of an individual.

Duration of course: 3 years

Physiotherapists can specialize in diverse areas such as Neurology, Osteology, Myology, and more. These professionals have the flexibility to practice in both public and private settings. With growing awareness of the crucial role physical therapy plays in overall well-being, the demand for physiotherapists has risen on a global scale.
