What is the difference between physiotherapy and occupational therapy?
Physiotherapy and occupational therapy are often confused with one another. Physiotherapy helps patients cope with:
- Discomfort
- expand the range of motion
- improve endurance
- strengthen gross motor skills.
Occupational therapy focuses more on the following:
- how clients accomplish activities such as getting dressed, driving, bathing, and more.
- roles that are most important in their daily lives, like performing their jobs
