More about this category
Physiotherapy helps with a wide range of conditions — from rehabilitation after surgery or a sports injury, through treatment of chronic back and neck pain, to helping older patients maintain mobility and balance. In most cases the referral to physiotherapy comes from a family doctor or a specialist through the health fund, and the number of covered sessions depends on the type of insurance and the specific medical condition. Having an academic center for physiotherapy and rehabilitation, like the one at Ariel University, gives the city an additional advantage — possible access to treatment as part of student training alongside the regular health-fund clinics, which broadens the options available to residents.
