Rehabilitation is the process of helping a person restore function, independence, and quality of life after injury, illness, surgery, or physical impairment.

It may involve a multidisciplinary approach combining medical care, physical therapy, exercise, and other interventions to help individuals return to their daily activities, work, recreation, or sport.

Physical Therapy (Physiotherapy) is a healthcare profession focused on movement and physical function.

Physical therapists assess and manage problems involving the muscles, joints, nerves, balance, mobility, and movement system through evidence-based interventions.

Sports Physical Therapy is a specialized area of physical therapy dedicated to sports injuries, athletic rehabilitation, injury prevention, and physical performance. It takes rehabilitation beyond basic recovery by preparing the body for the specific physical demands of each sport.
