Today we celebrate World Physiotherapy Day 🙌💪🌏
World Physiotherapy Day is an opportunity for physiotherapists from all over the world to raise awareness about the crucial contribution their profession makes to keep people well, mobile and independent.
This year’s theme is rehabilitation and long COVID
1 in 10 of all COVID-19 cases will exhibit Long COVID symptoms for a period of 12 weeks or longer.
Today is and this year's theme focuses on rehabilitation and Long COVID, and the important role physios play in the treatment and management of people affected. Safe and effective rehabilitation is a fundamental part of recovery, which is tailored to the individual, depending on their symptoms, goals and preferences.
We would like to call out all physios across the world, and thank them for the incredible job they are doing alongside their frontline worker colleagues. We cannot thank you enough.
