The majority of injuries that we encounter in physiotherapy are orthopaedic. These, by definition, include injuries pertaining to the musculoskeletal system, which includes: bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles and cartilages, among others.
Each injury is different and each person heals differently. The goal in rehabilitation is to help the injured tissues recuperate in a controlled and supervised manner.
Physiotherapists can establish a secure and efficient rehabilitation program that are specifically adapted to the capacities of the person. They can identify the cause of the injury and create a treatment plan to prevent future injuries.
