Physiotherapy
Introduction
Physiotherapy is a modern, evidence-based healthcare practice focused on restoring movement, reducing pain, and improving physical function. It uses a combination of manual therapy, exercise, and advanced techniques to help patients recover from injury, illness, or disability.
Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in rehabilitation, pain management, and long-term physical wellness.
The Science Behind Physiotherapy
