You should consult a physiotherapist for back or neck pain, joint pain, sports injuries, post-surgery recovery, stroke rehabilitation, or mobility issues.

The duration depends on the condition, but most patients notice improvement within a few sessions, while complete recovery may take weeks to months.

Physiotherapy is generally safe and non-invasive. Some discomfort may occur initially, but treatments are designed to reduce pain and restore movement.
