💼 Physiotherapy Specializations 💼

Did you know there are different specializations in Physiotherapy?

While I usually come across people who think physiotherapy is all about massage, it is not also unusual to encounter those who think there's only one aspect of physiotherapy - either “fixing bone” Or “touching nerves”

Well, we do more than just that

Physiotherapy isn't just one thing—there are different specialty areas which include

1. Orthopedic Physiotherapy (Muscle, Bone, and Joint Physiotherapy):
This type focuses on problems with bones, muscles, and joints, like back pain, broken bones, or arthritis.
It helps people regain strength and move better after injuries.
We also help individuals who have had orthopedic related surgeries heal faster and prevent complications related to surgery.

2. Neurological Physiotherapy (Nerve and Brain Physiotherapy):
For people who have had strokes, spinal cord injuries, or diseases like Parkinson’s, Multiple Sclerosis and other forms of neuropathies.
Neuro PT helps especially with balance, movement, and coordination as well as pain management.
It focuses on helping the nervous system recover faster.

3. Neurosurgery Physiotherapy (After Brain or Spinal Surgery):
After brain or spinal cord surgery, this type of physiotherapy helps patients regain movement, balance, and strength. It plays a vital role in recovery after complex neurosurgical procedures.
(Can still be placed under the broad category of Neurological physiotherapy)

4. Cardiopulmonary Physiotherapy (Heart and Lung Physiotherapy):
This type helps people with breathing problems or heart issues, like those recovering from a heart attack or heart surgery.
It improves heart and lung function through special exercise programs.
They also play a very fantastic role in the ICU to help accelerate recovery and prevent the numerous complications that could arise as a result of prolonged immobility

5. Pediatric Physiotherapy (Children’s Physiotherapy):
This type focuses on helping children who have problems with movement or development, such as kids with cerebral palsy, down's syndrome or any other conditions that may delay their motor or sensory development.

They also help children below the age of 13/14 across diverse other ailments or injuries that causes them pain, affects their movement or require exercise as part of the treatment regimen

6. Geriatric Physiotherapy (Older Adults Physiotherapy): As people age, they might have problems with their balance or joint pain. This type of physiotherapy helps older adults stay active and independent by treating age-related issues like arthritis and weak bones.

7. Women’s Health Physiotherapy (Pregnancy and Pelvic Health):
Women's health physiotherapists support women all through their reproductive cycles and even after.

From Menarche to Menopause...

From the antenatal classes to the labour ward and into the delivery room/theatre and all through post partum life every woman at one point or the other can tremendously benefit from the services of a qualified physiotherapist.

This area focuses on helping women prevent and recovee from pregnancy-related issues, such as back pain, or recovery after childbirth.
It also helps women with pelvic floor problems such as urinary incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, vaginismus etc

8. Sports Physiotherapy (Injury Prevention and Recovery for Athletes):
This type is for athletes who get injured or need to prevent injuries. Ranging from minor ankle sprains on-field to advanced rehabilitation following surgical repairs of severe joint, bone or soft tissue traumatic injuries
It helps them recover quickly and safely, and sometimes even perform better after recovery.

9. Integumentary Physiotherapy (Skin and Wound Care):
This type focuses on healing wounds and skin issues, such as burns, ulcers, or post-surgical scars.
Physiotherapists use techniques to promote healing and prevent complications.

10. Vestibular Physiotherapy (Balance and Dizziness Physiotherapy):
Some people experience dizziness or problems with balance.
This type of therapy helps correct those issues, often caused by problems in the inner ear, so people can avoid falling.

11. Oncology Physiotherapy (Cancer Recovery Physiotherapy):
Cancer treatment can make people weak and tired.
This type of physiotherapy helps cancer patients gain strength and feel better during or after their treatment.

Each of these specializations ensures that people get the right care for their specific condition, whether it’s a broken bone, balance problem, or even breathing difficulty.
