Physiotherapy

The Physiotherapy Section in the Department of Rehabilitation is dedicated to delivering excellence in patient care through a comprehensive range of services. Our highly- skilled physiotherapists specialise in assessing, diagnosing, and treating conditions that affect movement and function, empowering patients to achieve their maximum mobility and independence.

Operating in both inpatient and outpatient settings, our treatment focus includes:

Falls prevention – helping patients reduce the risk of falls and improve balance.
Pulmonary rehabilitation – optimising respiratory function for those with lung conditions.
Cardiac rehabilitation – enhancing recovery and fitness after heart-related conditions.
Sports injuries – facilitating safe and effective return to activity.
Post-surgical rehabilitation – supporting recovery after total hip or knee replacements.
Paediatric conditions – addressing movement and developmental challenges in children.

Our physiotherapists work closely in multidisciplinary teams, including the Orthopaedics, Cardiology, and Respiratory Medicine departments to provide holistic and personalised care. We also collaborate with other allied health professionals , such as occupational therapists, to support functional recovery and improve quality of life.

Beyond clinical care, we are committed to advancing the field of physiotherapy through research and education. Our involvement in studies—ranging from movement analysis to rehabilitation strategies—demonstrates our dedication to evidence-based practice. Additionally, we actively contribute to training future physiotherapists by partnering with the Singapore Institute of Technology and offering clinical placements and mentorship to students.

As part of our mission to elevate the profession, we work alongside the Singapore Physiotherapy Association to drive innovation and best practices in physiotherapy across Singapore. Join our team and be part of an exceptional work environment that values expertise, collaboration, and continuous learning.
