PHYSICAL THERAPY
Physiotherapy encompasses a variety of therapy options. It can be roughly divided into active and passive methods, which are individually tailored to the patient and his or her complaints.
It's an important part of successful treatment in most medical fields, and can be divided into:
-
Prevention of ailments
-
Therapy of complaints
-
Rehabilitation - reintegration of an injured, sick, or disabled person back into work and society
Treatment begins with an initial consultation and a detailed assessment to find out the possible causes of the problems. Then the therapist individually selects the appropriate treatment techniques.
