#physiotherapy definition
- Adduction — A physiological or biomechanical movement by which a limb or an anatomical segment is brought closer to the median symmetrical plane of the body. This structural phenomenon is the opposite of abduction and is controlled by specific muscle groups ensuring the kinematic and functional balance of the locomotor system.
- Anatripsiology — A branch of therapeutics and physiotherapy dealing with the theoretical study, methodological principles, and clinical application of friction, massages, and mechanical manipulations on the skin and deep tissues for curative purposes. This structural discipline analyzes the physiological effects of body rubbing on blood circulation, muscle relaxation, and cellular regeneration.
