Physiotherapy helps to restore movement and function when someone is affected by injury, illness or disability. It can also help to reduce your risk of injury or illness in the future. It takes a holistic approach that involves the patient directly in their own care.
Physiotherapists usually recommend movement and exercise to help improve your mobility and function. This may include: exercises designed to improve movement and strength in a specific part of the body – these usually need to be repeated regularly for a set length of time.
