Physiotherapy, Physical Rehabilitation and Sports Medicine

Traditional Physical therapy medicine

Traditional medicine is “the knowledge, skills, and practices based on the theories, beliefs, and experiences indigenous to different cultures, used in the maintenance of health and in the prevention, diagnosis, improvement or treatment of physical and mental illness”. The knowledge of certain herbs, animals, and minerals that have curative and palliative effects was transmitted from one generation to another and it is the outcome of bold experimentation through trial and error method over hundreds of years. Traditional medicine is the mother of all other systems of medicine such as Ayurveda, Siddha, Unani, Nature cure and even modern medicine.
