Physiotherapy as defined in dictionaries as ‘’the treatment of disease, deformity or injury by physical means such as massage, heat treatment or exercises, rather than by drugs or surgery’’.
Electrotherapy methods have also been incorporated into the treatment regime some used widely in hospitals and others used more frequently in private practice.
