Physiological Therapy, also known as physiologic therapy, is a specialized field within healthcare that focuses on optimizing the physiological functions of the body to promote overall health and well-being. This holistic approach recognizes the intricate interplay of various physiological systems, including the musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, and nervous systems. Physiological therapists, often referred to as physiologists, employ evidence-based interventions to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of conditions affecting these systems. One primary aspect of physiological therapy involves Exercise Prescription tailored to individual needs and goals. Exercise interventions aim to improve cardiovascular fitness, muscle strength, flexibility, and overall functional capacity. Physiological therapists utilize a variety of exercise modalities, such as aerobic training, resistance exercises, and flexibility drills, to address specific physiological objectives. These interventions not only contribute to physical health but also play a crucial role in preventing and managing chronic diseases.
