World Physiotherapy Day is celebrated every year on 8 September.
The theme of World Physiotherapy Day 2023 is "Prevention and Management of Osteoarthritis".
This theme emphasizes the role of physiotherapists in preventing and managing osteoarthritis and highlights two types of inflammatory arthritis: rheumatoid arthritis and axial spondyloarthritis.
World Physical Therapy Day was established in 1996 by the World Confederation for Physical Therapy.
8 September was specifically chosen to celebrate this day because of its historical significance. On this day in 1951, the World Confederation for Physical Therapy was born.
