I was engaged in physiotherapy at the national institute for handicapped in the Islamic Republic of Pakistan as a member of Japan Overseas Cooperation Volunteer from 2005 to 2007. The aim of the mission was to improve the rehabilitation section of a physiotherapy department. To this aim we tried to improve the quality of physiotherapy for patients and to instruct counterpart and staff, particularly about manual treatments and their evaluation methods. I report on the current situation of physiotherapy in Pakistan and our activities.
