Introduction[edit | edit source]
Physiotherapy plays a vital role in optimization of life in patients living with HIV. HIV can lead to AIDS, due to which the defense mechanism of the body fails step-by-step and health progressively decorates from bad to worst. But people with HIV are living longer as 50% of HIV patients have access to Antiretroviral Therapy. This means people with HIV are aging and also the number of co-morbidities. Physical therapy and rehabilitation can play a major role to maintain physical, mental and social health. [1]
