Physiotherapy and functional rehabilitation in Sidi Bernoussi
How physiotherapy treatment works at Centre Amama Tarik, from your first call to the follow-up of your sessions.
What is physiotherapy?
Physiotherapy is a health discipline that uses movement, therapeutic exercise and manual techniques to help restore, improve or maintain physical abilities.
It is usually carried out on medical prescription, alongside the follow-up provided by your doctor.
Functional rehabilitation
Functional rehabilitation aims at the gradual recovery of everyday movements and activities: walking, using a limb, returning to work or sport.
Its content is defined by the professional according to your situation and your doctor’s instructions.
How treatment generally works
Every course of care is different. Here are the main steps usually involved.
-
Booking
By phone, you explain the reason for your visit and, if applicable, whether you have a prescription.
-
First appointment
A discussion about your situation, then an assessment by the professional. It is also the time to ask your questions.
-
The sessions
The professional explains how the sessions work and may suggest exercises to continue at home.
-
Follow-up
Your progress is monitored over the sessions and treatment is adjusted if needed, in liaison with your doctor.
The number, frequency and content of sessions are determined by the professional after assessment. No duration can be set in advance on this website.
