NSP President implores Physiotherapists to raise awareness on this occasion of World Physiotherapy Day, 2022.

Warm greetings highly esteemed and iNSPired physiotherapists!

It is that time of the year again - 8th of September - a day highly anticipated by all physiotherapists and our client communities.
A day set aside to mark Physiotherapy world over!
Today we are reminded of just how dynamic and noble the physiotherapy profession is. The impact of our work is reflected in the overall medical and physical outcome of our patients. For this and more, I congratulate Nigerian Physiotherapists on the giant strides we have made so far in putting physiotherapy forward. Much more will be achieved as we work together in unity.

The theme for this year is "Osteoarthritis and the role of Physiotherapists"
Physiotherapists worldwide are expected to use the opportunity of this remarkable event to highlight the many ways physiotherapy functions in the prevention, management, prehabilitation and rehabilitation of people with osteoarthritis.

It is always a delight to see how Nigerian physiotherapists interpret the themes with creative ideas to represent the profession each year. The day has always been phenomenal, today will without a doubt, be no exception.

I want to use this opportunity to implore us to go all out to create awareness on the work that we do in our communities as physiotherapists. The onus is on us to tell our story to the world.

I look forward to all the creative initiatives by our members, groups and centers to mark this outstanding day. 

Long live the Nigeria Society of Physiotherapy!
Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!

Happy World Physiotherapy day 2022

Yours in Service,

Dr Nnenna Nina (Olajumoke Salamatu) Chigbo, PT
