The treatment plan focuses on restoring normal function and vitality, comprising three key components:

• Determining Treatment Approach: The number and type of sessions are decided based on the patient’s health status, utilizing techniques such as kinesiology, manual therapy, exercise therapy, or electrotherapy, facilitated by modern mobile devices to expedite recovery.
• Adherence to Therapeutic Exercises: Patients and their caregivers are encouraged to follow the prescribed exercises as part of the home physiotherapy program, essential for maximizing treatment effectiveness.
• Compliance with General Guidelines: It is imperative for patients and caregivers to adhere to the physiotherapist’s recommendations regarding daily activities and practices, ensuring optimal outcomes and promoting overall well-being.
