Too little exercise, sitting in the office all day – our modern lifestyles allow back and musculoskeletal system problems to manifest. Yet these, and more, can be alleviated or avoided with the help of physiotherapy. Whether due to wear and tear, illness, or after accidents – as a physiotherapist you help people to treat their mobility issues. As much attention is paid to therapy and rehabilitation as it is to health promotion and prevention.
