The importance of physical therapy and the role of the physiotherapist in the rehabilitation of musculoskeletal and neurological diseases are emphasized in a statement by the physiotherapists of the ANAPLASI Recovery and Rehabilitation Center, on the occasion of World Physiotherapy Day (September 8).
“As physiotherapists, working in a place that generates progress and does not simply monitor it, we feel that every day for us is “PHYSICAL THERAPY DAY”.
At ANAPLASI, which hosts 50 hospitalized patients and hundreds of outpatients daily, we encounter complex and difficult-to-treat conditions every day, which is why our role requires specialized techniques and continuous scientific improvement. At ANAPLASI, we have learned to intervene therapeutically, not only individually, but also as members of the Trans-Disciplinary Rehabilitation Team, working all together, doctors and therapists, we design and implement the appropriate, personalized therapeutic program for our patients. At the same time, we have established continuing education as a part of our strategy, so that we are constantly informed and trained in the most modern methods of physical therapy intervention”, says Alexandros Gianniris, head of the Department.
“The therapeutic procedures we perform at ANAPLASI give excellent results, as shown not only by the statistics in our published papers, but above all by the thousands of satisfied patients, who make us proud of our work. As for the enormous wealth of knowledge and experience we possess, we disseminate it through undergraduate and postgraduate educational programs, in collaboration with distinguished colleges,” adds Costas Tagias, head of the Continuing Education Department at ANAPLASI.
And the physiotherapists of ANAPLASI conclude:
“Within the framework of the Trans-Disciplinary Rehabilitation Team, we are all together, in good times and in bad. That is why we celebrate World Days like this together, regardless of specialty, since we share our effective contributions to give the maximum functional independence to patients with permanent or temporary motor disability.”
