Hi Lori,

I really am sorry for all the pain and trouble you've been having. As others have said backs are strange things - strong, yet frail too. Carrying all those nerves is no help, either. I really hope you can manage and then reduce that pain and sleep better. You sound very brave... men would protest much more!

ALLIED HEALTH PROFESSIONALS: WHAT DOES A PHYSIOTHERAPIST DO?

Working as a Physiotherapist
Physiotherapists help and treat people of all ages with physical problems caused by illness, accident or ageing.

Physiotherapy is a healthcare profession which sees human movement as central to the health and well-being of individuals. Physiotherapists identify and maximise movement potential through health promotion, preventive healthcare, treatment and rehabilitation.

The core skills used by physiotherapists include manual therapy, therapeutic exercise and the application of electro-physical modalities. Physiotherapists also have an appreciation of psychological, cultural and social factors which influence their clients.

The following are just a few of the areas Physiotherapists work:

Outpatients; Intensive care; Womens health; Care of the elderly; Stroke patients; Orthopaedics; Mental illness ; Learning difficulties; Occupational health; Terminally ill; Paediatrics

Many physiotherapists work within hospitals. Here they are needed in virtually every department, from general out-patients to intensive care, where round-the-clock chest physiotherapy can be vital to keep unconscious patients breathing.

Hospitals often have physiotherapy gyms, hydrotherapy and high-tech equipment so that specialist therapy can be carried out.

Todays Physiotherapist is just as likely to work in the local community as within a hospital. There is also a need for physiotherapists in many other places.

All the best, now. James.
