Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
To improve a patient’s physical ability, effective physiotherapy and occupational therapy treatment and an assessment of comprehensive rehabilitation appear to be important. Thus, a proper understanding of clinical factors along with adequate physiotherapy and occupational therapy has become a critical component of any rehabilitation approach. In addition, the accurate assessment of physical or motor function can lead to the early detection and prevention of disease. Therefore, it is critically important that physiatrists, physiotherapists, and occupational therapists constantly develop their knowledge and techniques. This Special Issue aims to serve as a global forum for the discussion of all aspects of motion analysis, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and rehabilitation studies including evaluation, treatment, and prevention.
