Physical rehabilitation is...

a non-invasive discipline that helps individuals develop, maintain and restore maximum body movement and physical function. Physical rehabilitation can help clients recover from an injury, relieve pain, prevent future injury or deal with a chronic condition. It can be applied at any age or stage of life. The ultimate goal of physical rehabilitation is to improve health and quality of life.

 

Generally, the doctor begins by conducting an evaluation, which includes a medical history and a physical examination. Based on this information, the doctor will structure a treatment plan, monitor progress and provide some manual (hands-on) support for exercises.
