Programme Details:

Physical therapy (or physiotherapy), often abbreviated PT, is a health care profession primarily concerned with the remediation of impairments and disabilities and the promotion of mobility, functional ability, quality of life and movement potential through examination, evaluation, diagnosis and physical intervention carried out by Physical Therapists or Physiotherapists and Physical Therapist Assistants or Physical Rehabilitation Therapists.

It is one of the Allied health professions that, by using mechanical force and movements [Bio-mechanics or Kinesiology], Manual therapy, exercise therapy, and electrotherapy, remediates impairments and promotes mobility and function. Physical therapy is used to improve a patient's quality of life through examination, diagnosis, prognosis, and physical intervention. It is performed by physical therapists (known as physiotherapists in many countries)

Facilities:

The Physiotherapy Department is equipped with well organized classrooms and Laboratories of Anatomy lab, Physiology lab, Exercisetherapy lab, Electrotherapy lab, Musculoskeletal & Sports activity lab, Neurology & Paediatric lab etc.

The students are encouraged to prepare projects of specific subject in their laboratories where teachers work together with students, which helps students to understand the concepts practically.

The students are facilitated with departmental library to get the books of specific subjects.

Program Outcomes:
