Physical Therapy Center in Jabal Zawiya, Idlib, Syria
Physical Therapy (PT) is a type of medical care that is offered to individuals of all ages who have suffered bodily injuries that affect their movement and physical functions. PT attempts to stimulate the functionality of injured body parts, restore their normal mobility and increases the level of physical stamina.
Due to the ongoing war in Syria and the considerable number of civilian areas targeted by bombing, thousands of injuries and disabilities have been arising which need follow-up treatment succeeding first aid and surgical operations, particularly in limbs and spine. Thus, Orient for Human Relief took initiative to create a physical therapy center in Jabal Zawiya area in the Idlib city.
