PHYSIOTHERAPY
How do I re-define physiotherapy ?
Having in-depth knowledge and understanding of human anatomy, physiology, kinesiology/ biomechanics and psychology along with up- to- date knowledge in pathology, dysfunctions and illnesses, I would redefine physiotherapy as a discipline that aims at restoration and repairing joint dysfunction whilst maintenance of mobility, body function and well-being.
In doing so, physiotherapists are familiar with analysing the cause of the problems, applying evidence-based scientific treatment methods, such as exercise therapy, hands-on manual therapy techniques and electrotherapy.
Communication and patient education in self-management and awareness would speed up recovery.
Most important of all, I always believe prevention is the best cure for all.
