Physiotherapy in Hong Kong: An Infographic

Emerging research and data point to physiotherapy as an effective treatment for chronic pain causes. For instance, physiotherapy treatment has been noted as a successful MRI alternative and drug-free pain relief option for ailments such as tarsal tunnel syndrome and fibromyalgia. The benefits of physiotherapy have also been found to extend to mental well-being and savings in treatment costs.

Bringing Awareness to Physiotherapy in Hong Kong

Many of these issues can be addressed by promoting physiotherapy in Hong Kong. The public can experience reduced stress and costs from treating injuries before they require extensive surgery or intensive medical care. A better understanding of what harms our body’s long-term health can also help provide the opportunity to rethink our current practises and how we can readjust our lifestyle to facilitate a healthier way of living for our bodies.
