Physical therapy is the service for acquiring or practicing physical skills needed for basic activities in daily living. Not only seniors and accident victims, but also children whose physical development is delayed receive physical therapy. In general, the methods of physical therapy are therapeutic gymnastics, exercise, electrical stimulation, massage, and ice/heat therapy.
