Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation
Physical therapy and rehabilitation is a medical specialty that aims to maximize individuals’ functional and work capacities, teach them to live independently without relying on others, and improve their quality of life. It addresses orthopedic problems such as muscle, joint, bone, and spine disorders, sports injuries, rheumatic diseases, and neurological conditions such as stroke, helping to plan the most effective treatment.
Physical therapy methods include hot/cold applications, ultrasound therapy, electrical stimulation, hydrotherapy, and traction treatments. In addition, exercise and proper body mechanics are indispensable components of physical therapy and rehabilitation programs. At our center, treatment plans are prepared in line with the latest global developments and applied safely with modern equipment and an experienced team.
