Celebrated annually on September 8th, World Physiotherapy Day recognises the unity and solidarity the Australian and the global physiotherapy community.
At Physioworks Health Group, on World Physiotherapy Day, we acknowledge and celebrate the work that our team of physiotherapists do for our clients and our community.
Each year on World Physiotherapy Day there is a focus on a specific health condition that can impact everyday life activity. In 2026, the focus is on the role of physiotherapy and physical activity in the prevention, management, and rehabilitation of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and stroke.
Cardiovascular diseases are a leading cause of death globally with 20.5 million lives lost to CVD (which is 30% of all global deaths) – 85% of these are due to heart attack and stroke*.
The highly qualified physiotherapy team at Physioworks Health Group, have much experience in the treatment and management for client’s presenting with issues relating to cardiovascular disease (CVD), across all age demographics.
Physioworks Health Group Director & Specialist Musculoskeletal Physiotherapist Andrew Dalwood (FACP) summarised how the Physioworks physio team can best assist: “Our team can provide detailed assessment; and a tailored, safe, monitored individual exercise program to keep you active and moving to help manage your condition, lower your risk and improve your fitness to help prevent CDV and/or stroke”.
The Physioworks physiotherapy team can assist you with your CVD related issues. Please call for an appointment to your preferred Physioworks clinic.
