Physical therapy and rehabilitation are clinical treatments that help people get back to healthy living. Physical therapy and rehabilitation services are appropriate for people recovering from surgery and people living with a chronic illness. These services often include exercises and other treatments that help to improve the function of specific body parts, as well as treatments to improve general, overall daily routines.
