The Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Laboratories are designed to support clinical patient evaluation and treatment practices through the use of physical agents and applied training equipment. The laboratories aim to enhance students’ professional knowledge and clinical skills.

The Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation Laboratory consists of five (5) separate laboratories:

1. Basic Training Laboratory

This laboratory focuses on teaching evaluation techniques and treatment approaches related to neurological, orthopedic, traumatic, rheumatologic, gynecological, obstetric, urogynecological, geriatric, pediatric, and oncological conditions, as well as athlete health and ergonomic problems.

Main equipment includes:

Wall Bars: Used for balance, posture, upper extremity strengthening, and coordination exercises.

Exercise Stairs: Used to improve stair climbing, balance, and functional mobility.

Finger Ladder: Used to improve finger and shoulder range of motion.

Shoulder Wheel: Used for active shoulder exercises, especially in frozen shoulder.

Parallel Bars: Used for gait training, balance, and post-stroke rehabilitation.

Tilt Table: Used to gradually adapt bedridden patients to an upright position.

2. Physical Agents and Electrotherapy Laboratory

This laboratory provides practical training on the chemical, magnetic, thermal, and therapeutic effects of electrical currents and deep heat therapies.

Main devices include:

Algometer: Measures pain pressure threshold.

TENS (Single and Multi-Channel): Used for pain management.

EMS: Used for muscle stimulation and pain control.

Ultrasound: Used for deep tissue heating, edema reduction, and tissue healing.

Vacuum Electrotherapy: Used for soft tissue and joint conditions.

Shortwave and Microwave Diathermy: Used to increase circulation and reduce pain.

Magnetotherapy: Used for pain relief.

Infrared Heater: Used for superficial heat applications.

Hot Pack and Paraffin Bath: Used for muscle relaxation and pain reduction.

Shockwave Therapy System: Supports tissue regeneration and pain reduction.

Scanning Laser Therapy: Enhances circulation and tissue healing.

Traction Unit: Used to reduce disc pressure in spinal disorders.

3. Therapeutic Exercise Laboratory

Exercise practices aimed at improving range of motion, muscle strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, endurance, and functional independence are taught.

Equipment includes:

Exercise Bicycle

Treadmill

4. Manual Therapy Laboratory

Manual physiotherapy techniques applied without the use of equipment to improve joint and soft tissue mobility in musculoskeletal disorders are taught.

5. Healthy Living Laboratory

This laboratory focuses on:

Musculoskeletal assessments

Postural analysis

Preventive physiotherapy

Exercise programs such as Pilates and yoga for healthy individuals.
