A physiotherapist will focus on treating a client’s injury and working to improve his/her ability to perform movement of the human body. Physiotherapy focuses on improving physical measures such as joint range of movement, muscle strength and endurance.
Meanwhile, occupational therapy focuses on assisting a person to improve their ability to perform regular daily activities independently, following or during a period of physical impairment.
