WHAT IS PHYSIOTHERAPY?
Physiotherapy is a clinical service that is established in the treatment of all kinds of muscular and skeletal problems, including sports and traumatic injuries, general aches and pains and post-surgical rehabilitation. Physiotherapy may also help to prevent injuries. Potential causes of injuries can be identified, then a course of action put in place to help limit the chance of occurrence.
