Abstract :
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is frequently treated with physiotherapy methods. These treatments encompass cryotherapy/thermotherapy, electrotherapy, and physical therapy.This is due to the influence of multiple factors on the illness process, making it challenging to accurately identify the effectiveness of the treatments being studied. Nevertheless, a wide range of physiotherapy agents are frequently employed in routine clinical practice, with their utilization primarily relying on individual anecdotal evidence. The objective of managing rheumatoid arthritis is to attain analgesia and prevent articular degeneration and impairment in functionality. Physiotherapy and rehabilitation applications greatly enhance medical treatment by enhancing the management of RA and decreasing disabilities in everyday activities for people with RA.
