What Is Physiotherapy?

Physiotherapy (also known as physical therapy) is a branch of healthcare that uses physical methods, including manual therapy, therapeutic exercises, electrotherapy, and patient education, to diagnose and treat a wide range of physical conditions. Physiotherapy helps patients recover from injuries and surgery, manage chronic pain, improve movement, and prevent future injuries.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) – Physiotherapy Lahore

Q: How many physiotherapy sessions will I need?

A: The number of sessions depends on your condition, severity, and response to treatment. Acute injuries may resolve in 4–8 sessions. Chronic conditions or neurological rehabilitation may require 12–24 sessions or more. Your physiotherapist will provide a realistic treatment plan.

Q: Does physiotherapy hurt?

A: Physiotherapy should not cause significant pain. You may experience mild discomfort during mobilisation of stiff joints or trigger point work, but your physiotherapist will always work within your tolerance. The goal is to reduce pain, not increase it.

Q: Can I see a physiotherapist without a doctor's referral?

A: Yes. You can book a physiotherapy assessment directly at Lions Medical Complex. However, if you have a complex medical condition, co-management with your doctor is recommended.
