World Physiotherapy Day is observed annually on September 8 to honour the invaluable contribution of physiotherapists in enhancing movement, rehabilitation, and overall quality of life. Established in 1996 by World Physiotherapy, the date marks the organization’s founding in 1951. The 2025 theme, “Healthy Ageing: Preventing Frailty and Falls,” underscores the importance of physiotherapy in supporting older adults to maintain independence, prevent injuries, and promote healthy lifestyles. This observance not only raises global awareness about physiotherapy’s role in healthcare but also highlights its significance in tackling age-related challenges, chronic diseases, and movement-related disorders across all populations.
