Department of Physical Therapy

“Experts” in the true sense of the word, who can respond to the needs of society with the latest rehabilitation skills

Physical therapists work to promote the quality of life of people with disabilities through rehabilitation. As the emergence of new diseases and the aging society have brought rapid changes in how people live, physical therapists also face new roles that they must play in such changes from hospitals to home care and to community health and welfare. With the help of teaching staff in clinical training courses our aim is to foster experts in the rehabilitation fi eld. In addition, physical therapists must have skills in communicating with other co-medical professionals in a team treatment environment as well as specialized skills in contributing to our communities.
