Track 5: Yoga & Fitness in Physical Therapy
Common physical therapy goals of enhancing strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, sequencing, motor control, kinaesthetic senses, posture and alignment can be impacted with the judicious use of Yoga and certain yogic principles. For example, the mindfulness and visualizations of Yoga are used to enhance body awareness, balance and alignment. The "holding" phase of the Yoga asanas help to build isometric muscle power, tone muscles, and perform active stretching of targeted muscle groups. The controlled transitions in and out of postures enhance coordination, sequencing and motor control. By breathing into the postures, muscle spasms can be relaxed, and pain can be relieved. Synchronizing the breath with the movements further enhances oxygenation, and energy levels, leading to a feeling of wellbeing.

Track 14: Manual & Manipulative Therapy
The three most notable forms of manual therapy are manipulation, mobilization and massage. Manipulation is the artful introduction of a rapid rotational, shear or distraction force into an articulation. Manipulation is often associated with an audible popping sound caused by the instantaneous breakdown of gas bubbles that form during joint cavitation. Mobilization is a slower, more controlled process of articular and soft-tissue (myofascial) stretching intended to improve bio-mechanical elasticity. Massage is typically the repetitive rubbing, stripping or kneading of myofascial tissues to principally improve interstitial fluid dynamics.

Physiotherapy, also called physical therapy, is used to treat pain by using pain relieving methods such as interferential therapy, ultrasonic, short wave diathermy, wax therapy, and muscle strengthening exercises. Physiotherapy plays an important role in the recovery of stroke patients. It also plays a major role in treating children with cerebral palsy. It also plays a vital role in cardio pulmonary rehabilitation.
The physiotherapy industry can be analysed using Porter's (1979) five forces. Physiotherapy uses medical, geographic and funding segmentation. The power of the buyers in these segments is considerable. Substitutes are posing a threat to physiotherapy with few barriers to entry to operate in the health care environment. The suppliers, particularly doctors, have significant power in referring clients. Competitive rivalry for these clients can exist between individual physiotherapists and multi-disciplinary clinics. The difference in orientation of private and public physiotherapy can also be a basis for rivalry. Repositioning to view the client as both the supplier and recipients enables the physiotherapy industry to gain competitive advantage and ensures long term growth.
Importance & Scope:
Physiotherapy provides services to individuals and populations to develop, maintain, restore and optimise health and function throughout the lifespan. This includes providing services to people compromised by ageing, injury, disease or environmental factors. Physiotherapy identifies and maximises quality of life and movement potential by using the principles of promotion, prevention, treatment/intervention, habitation and rehabilitation. This encompasses physical, psychological, emotional, and social well-being.
The practice of physiotherapy is not confined to clinical practice, and encompasses all roles that a physiotherapist may assume such as patient/client care, health management, research, policy making, educating and consulting, wherever there may be an issue of public health and safety.
The Physical Therapists industry has benefited in the past five years from an aging population and increased prevalence of chronic diseases, both of which have expanded demand for industry services. Additionally, higher rates of private health insurance resulting from federal healthcare reform have made industry services affordable to more of the population. Despite expanding revenue, however, physical therapists have faced significant cost pressures, and consolidation and specialization within the industry have increased. Furthermore, Medicare reimbursement caps and cuts could present an impediment to industry growth in the five years to 2021

Major Market Analysis
The global physiotherapy equipment market was valued at USD 14.30 billion in 2014 and is expected to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% over the forecast period. Key driving factors of this market include growing geriatric population base, unhealthy lifestyle habits and the presence of favorable government regulations such as the Obamacare or the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA).
WHO’s National Institute on Aging states that prevalence of dementia and neurodegenerative disorders are expected to rise sharply (25–30%) with growing age. Dementia is ultimately accompanied with loss of reasoning, speech, and motor functions. Chronic diseases and lifestyle-related habits contribute to approximately 75% of the health costs.
The PPACA came into law and was enforced by President Obama in March 2010. The regulation has affected Americans and is expected to impact physical therapists in the future. The rise in the number of patients suffering from cardiovascular, neurological, and musculoskeletal diseases are expected to further propel the demand for these equipment in future, not only in the developed economies but also in emerging economies such as India and China. This market is expected to grow rapidly in the next few years due to continued westernization and urbanization in the emerging economies of China, Brazil and India.
