Physical medicine in rehabilitation uses non-invasive, non-surgical methods to manage musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. Approaches include therapeutic exercises, manual therapy, and pain-relief modalities like ultrasound and electrical stimulation, all designed to relieve pain, improve strength, and restore mobility. Physical medicine emphasizes personalized treatment plans based on patient-specific needs, aiming to help individuals return to daily activities while preventing re-injury. This approach often combines physical therapy with lifestyle changes, encouraging sustainable health benefits. Such methods are particularly effective in chronic pain management, post-operative recovery, and rehabilitation following sports injuries, empowering patients to regain independence and improve their quality of life.
