Orthopedic Physiotherapy primarily focuses on orthopedics and treatment conditions affecting the musculoskeletal system, which is composed of joints, muscles, bones, ligaments, and tendons. It diagnoses, manages, and cures disorders of the musculoskeletal system and recuperates patients after orthopedic surgery. Any condition that causes pain or limited functional mobility as a result of an injury to bony or soft tissue structures in your body may benefit from the skilled services of orthopedic physical therapy.
Orthopedic injuries and conditions may include:
- Fractures
