If you've ever wondered what physiotherapy is and what physiotherapists do then this section of the site is for you. Very briefly, physiotherapy is a healthcare profession concerned with human function and movement and maximizing potential. Physiotherapists work in a wide variety of health settings such as intensive care, mental illness, stroke recovery, occupational health, and care of the elderly. Physiotherapy is certainly far more than fixing musculoskeletal sports injuries although that is perhaps the most common perception of the profession.

A-Z of conditions

Physiotherapy may not immediately come to mind when looking to treat tinnitus, incontinence or leg ulcers. However, a brief look at our A-Z will give some indication of the huge range of conditions that physiotherapists do treat. The A-Z also includes a few treatment modalities that are part of physiotherapy practice. By no means a definitive list, it serves to illustrate the the breadth of physiotherapy practice.

Getting physiotherapy treatment

Nigeria Society of Physiotherapists work in a variety of settings including hospitals, health centers, GP practices, schools, work places, private clinics and also by visiting people at home. The three main treatment routes to see a physiotherapist are via the NHS, via private practitioners and via the independent sector. It's also possible to get treatment through less common routes such as charities and the voluntary sector. Should you wish to see a physiotherapist for private treatment, please make sure they are registered members. See our online Ekonsp directory to search for a practitioner in your area
