REHABILITATION

What is rehabilitation?

Rehabilitation is care that can help you get back, keep, or improve abilities that you need for daily life. These abilities may be physical, mental, and/or cognitive (thinking and learning). You may have lost them because of a disease or injury, or as a side effect from a medical treatment. Rehabilitation can improve your daily life and functioning.

Rehabilitation Benefits

Rehabilitation has many benefits, but those benefits differ depending on the type of therapy and condition. In general, rehabilitation helps the patients restore normal function and ease the pain.

Types of Physiotherapy

There are few branches in physiotherapy, each of which is different from the other in the uses. The main branches of physiotherapy are:

1-       Neurological physiotherapy

2-       Orthopedic physiotherapy

3-       Cardiopulmonary physiotherapy

4-       Pediatric physiotherapy

5-       Geriatric physiotherapy

Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation

Cardiopulmonary physiotherapy or cardiorespiratory physiotherapy is a sub-specialty of physiotherapy that is used to treat or rehabilitate patients with problems in the lungs and heart.

 

Cardiopulmonary rehabilitation therapy is usually used to treat conditions like:

1-       Asthma

2-       Bronchitis

3-       Angina

4-       Heart Attack (MI)

5-       Heart or lung injury or surgery

6-       Congestive Cardiac Failure (CCF)

7-       Emphysema

8-       Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

9-       Peripheral Vascular Disease

Cardiopulmonary physiotherapy is very beneficial to patients who had a heart attack or other heart surgeries. People who have no heart disease can use cardiorespiratory physiotherapy to reduce the risk of a heart attack in the future.

Geriatric Physiotherapy

Geriatric physiotherapy is a sub-specialty of rehabilitation that is used to treat elder people who have some conditions caused by the aging process. As people age, their bodies get more fragile, their bones lose density and their movements get unbalanced. Seniors are more prone to acute illnesses than younger people, so they need physiotherapy more. Illnesses can make them move less, maybe causing them to potentially lose mobility.

Geriatric physiotherapy helps elder people to become more independent by helping them improve balance, strengthening their muscles, and most importantly raising their confidence.
