About Physical Therapists
Definition
Feeling restricted when you move can change the way you live your life. Physical therapy is an alternative drug free form of treatment aimed at restoring flexible movement to all of the body and improving the overall health. Physical therapy, also known as physiotherapy, can help as part of the rehabilitation process following a stroke, spinal injury, joint replacement or a fall. Ongoing physical therapy can be beneficial to patients who are disabled and spend the majority of time in a wheelchair as physiotherapy can prevent muscle loss and assist with balance. Physical therapists work alongside orthopedic surgeons, family doctors and neurologists to provide supportive care and treatment.
