Happy World Physiotherapy Day 8th September 2021!
We are delighted to highlight World Physiotherapy Day which takes place on the 8th September 2021.
This year the focus is on rehabilitation and Long COVID.
Did you know that 1 in 10 of all Long COVID cases will exhibit symptoms for a period of 12 weeks or longer?
Long COVID is different for everyone.
Rehabilitation must be tailored to the individual, depending on their symptoms, goals and preferences.
It has to be done at an appropriate pace that is safe and manageable for energy levels. Rehabilitation should be within the limits of current symptoms and exertion, and not be pushed to the point of fatigue or worsening of symptoms.
We, as chartered Physiotherapists, are here to assess you, listen to your needs, develop a realistic programme and keep you motivated!
