History
Physiotherapy was created to overcome the loss of
functional ability. Suitable treatments were developed to
restore physical ability after war injuries, traumas, and
polio epidemics, and, through many stages, was accepted
as a widespread practice.
Due to advances in medicine and many developments in
health care, a patient’s chances of survival has increased.
As a patient acknowledges that the quality of living
is as important as being alive, there is a need for
physiotherapists to expand the definition of ‘being
healthy’ along a wider perspective.
Patients
Injury, disease, congenital disability,
movement system disorders, or other
pain and functional disorders.
Determining people’s functional
limitation, pain, disability, and special
abilities by special evaluation and

diagnosis of the doctor designing,

physiotherapy and rehabilitation
program to increase the function and

keep healthy people healthy, and
