What is physio therapy?

Physio therapy is a health profession concerned with helping to restore wellness to people following injury, pain or disability.

Physio therapy is defined as "providing services to individuals and populations to develop, maintain and restore maximum movement and functional ability throughout the lifespan".

This includes providing services in circumstances where movement and function are threatened by ageing, injury, pain, diseases, disorders, conditions or environmental factors. Functional movement is central to what it means to be healthy.

Using physical means such as exercise, manipulation, mobilisation and massage to help patient achieve their full potential.

Traditionally, physio therapy was regarded as rehabilitative and mainly hospital-based but the profession has always been active in other health care areas.

What conditions can physiotherapy treat?

Physiotherapy is multi-dimensional and can treat a vast variety of conditions. Primarily it focuses on the restoration and rehabilitation of the circulatory and musculo -skeletal systems; it can, however be used to treat conditions as diverse as sports injuries, arthritis and respiratory problems.

Does physio therapy hurts?

Generally, physiotherapy does not hurt although initially the stretches and exercises may cause slight discomfort; this is primarily due to the fact that the body is not used to such movement; as the body adjust and adapts it will be less painful. Physiotherapists take great care not to cause pain and are committed to the relief and control of pain.

In the vast majority of cases physiotherapy is considered extremely effective. Physiotherapy significantly improves the rehabilitation and recovery of most conditions, as well as being instrumental in the prevention of further injury. Physiotherapy often forms an integral part of a patient’s treatment plan and can be a means of relaxation and an indicator of individual progress; this can boost self-esteem and ameliorate the rate of recovery.
